Abstract. This article explores the age-related dynamics in educational motivation among primary school students with intellectual disabilities. A system of corrective and developmental interventions is proposed to foster optimal conditions for establishing stable positive learning motivation and enhancing cognitive interests in younger students with intellectual disabilities. These interventions are implemented through specially designed tasks and exercises that form an integrated unit aligned with each stage of the lesson, thereby increasing the overall effectiveness of the learning process.
Keywords: motivational sphere, dynamics of motivational component in education, educational productivity, primary school students with intellectual disabilities, modern educational technologies
