Abstract: The article discusses the scientific and methodological foundations and pedagogical technologies that ensure the intellectual development of elementary school students in English lessons. The purpose of the study is to identify the importance of the use of interactive and cognitive-oriented technologies for the formation of critical thinking, creativity and cognitive flexibility in younger schoolchildren in the context of modernization of education in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The methodological basis consisted of an analysis of regulatory documents in the field of education (the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan on Education, the State Program for the Development of Education and Science for 2020-2025), a theoretical generalization of modern pedagogical approaches, as well as the study of research results on the impact of early learning of a foreign language on cognitive development. The results of the study show that early learning of English promotes the development of memory, attention, analytical abilities and critical thinking, which distinguishes bilingual students from their monolingual peers. It has been confirmed that the formation of cognitive and intellectual skills at the initial stage of training creates a solid foundation for further academic and professional growth. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the systematization of pedagogical technologies that meet the requirements of the 21st century and substantiate their effectiveness for the intellectual development of younger schoolchildren in the context of globalization and educational reforms in Kazakhstan.
