Abstract
The issue of sustaining children's attention and overcoming passivity in the classroom is among the most pressing challenges in contemporary primary education. This article explores the potential of interactive methods in teaching the Bulgarian language, viewed in their entirety – through the synergy between digital tools and classical non-digital forms of interaction such as group work, discussions, and educational games. The main objective is to determine how this combined approach influences learning motivation and in what ways it activates students who traditionally remain passive during lessons.
The paper presents an empirical study that compares the authentic attitudes of primary school teachers, parents, and students. The data analysis reveals key correlations: over two-thirds of parents report increased motivation during home preparation, while the vast majority of teachers confirm a tangible activation among quieter children. The study offers a valuable pedagogical insight into the role of the competitive element in educational platforms, proving that when balanced with cooperative forms of work, it acts as a constructive stimulus without generating anxiety among more introverted students. The shared conclusions offer practical solutions for the work of the modern primary school teacher.
