Although the literature lists several, well-established international interventions and best practices to strengthen reading motivation, hardly any such teaching aids are available in Hungarian. This study aims to address this research gap. This first part of the study reviews the theoretical background of reading motivation, touches upon the interpretation, the importance of reading motivation, and some key environmental factors that may support it. The paper then summarizes the main lessons learned from reading motivation intervention programs, and presents the Concept-Oriented Reading Instruction (CORI) in details, which is one of the most well-known and empirically supported programs. Relying on the international literature, the second part of the study proposes seven reading motivation support principles which can easily be incorporated into classroom practice. Practical tips are also included for successful implementation.
