Life

Lastochkina, daughter of a Real State Councilor (4th grade class ), attended the Kazan Marienmairligymnasium in the pedagogy class, graduating in 1887 with a gold medal.

In 1889, Lastochkina became a teacher at the Kazan school for the deaf and dumb , of which she became director in 1893. In 1894 she reformed teaching. Curricula were drawn up, and craft training and drawing classes were introduced. The oral communication was taught. At the second conference of deaf educators as part of the congress for technical and vocational training in 1903, Lastochkina gave a lecture on facial expressions , emphasizing the importance of facial expressions and gestures as a means of communication and pleading against the exclusion of these means from the teaching canon. At the All-Russian Education Congress in 1910, she called for compulsory schooling for the deaf and dumb in order to prepare them for an independent life.

After the October Revolution , Lastochkina was involved in setting up the new education system. New workshops and special classrooms were opened in the Kazan Deaf-Mute School, and physical education was introduced. From 1931 she headed the study part of the school. She organized the Kazan deaf and dumb society. At the All-Russian Education Congress in 1938, she campaigned for the upbringing of deaf and dumb children to read outside of school and for the production of books with a suitable level of difficulty.

From 1954, Lastochkina worked at the Kazan School for the Deaf as a methodology consultant.

Lastochkina died in Moscow. Your urn was in Kazan on the Arskoje cemetery in the grave of her grandfather Protoiereus the Russian Orthodox Church GI Lastotschkin in the church of Yaroslavl miracle workers buried right next to the altar.

The Kazan school for the deaf, which Lastotschkina led through the First World War , the October Revolution and the German-Soviet War , was called the Swallow's Nest (Latotschka = swallow ). Today the school is housed in a modern building and bears Lastochkina's name. Her monument is in the courtyard.
