Abstract
This article examines the scientific and pedagogical foundations of using modern teaching methods to develop primary school students’ interest in reading. The study analyzes the influence of interactive methods, didactic games, gamification, problem-based learning, project-based learning, and digital technologies on students’ reading motivation. Particular attention is paid to the potential of modern methods to increase students’ classroom engagement, independent thinking, and positive attitudes toward reading. The importance of organizing the educational process according to students’ age and individual characteristics is also emphasized.
