The aim of this paper is to show the importance of motivational support in the learning process. More precisely, it reports important aspects of an educational intervention aimed at improving learning comprehension strategies of Basic Education fourth grade students. The intervention, based on the Cognitive Psychology and Information Process Theories, focused on the teaching of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies to the students and consisted of seven sessions of one hour and a half of duration for two months. The intervention also included motivational support and study guidance in every session. Results reinforce the idea that school success can be increased when cognitive, metacognitive and motivation to learn are strengthened and taken into account in the psycho pedagogical practices.

Keywords : Motivation; Cognitive and Metacognitives Learning Strategies; Psychopedagogical Intervention; Reading Comprehension.
