The article is devoted to the problem of formation of linguistic and cultural competence during foreign language classes in the middle school. The influence of intercultural interference will be significantly offset by the inclusion of linguoculturological aspects in the content of teaching foreign language, which could serve as a system of unifying values that allow us to understand the boundaries of our own linguistic identity and the identity of a native speaker’s language. The article analyzes the results of a pedagogical experiment aimed at the formation of linguoculturological competences of students in middle school. All teaching methods and techniques were oriented to stimulate the students' creative speech activity, as well as cognitive aspects, which increased the efficiency of teaching the foreign language. The authors confirmed the hypothesis that the process of teaching foreign language will be more successful if the linguoculturological aspect is included in the content of what is taught, comprising the use of linguistic and cultural information as a valuable source of linguocultural material. For that reason, the conditions for successful assimilation of knowledge, the formation and improvement of linguocultural competence in the foreign language lesson in the middle school were created. The results of a pedagogical experiment could be used in a foreign language lesson in middle school.
