Abstract

The motivation of students should be primarily external and internal (coming from the inside of each student). Student should see learning process as a meaningful activity and especially personal experience.

Unmotivated students are one of the biggest problems for teachers. They can complicate the whole process of teaching.

The aim of teacher is to find appropriate motivating elements in education. Every student has a control over their learning process.

The article contains ideas for creation of realization of integrated thematic instruction for students of 7th grade primary school. The lessons are focused on the attractiveness of sciences subjects (chemistry, physics, biology and geography) to students at primary school by using a variety of activation methods.
