Abstract	This study examined the impact of a blended teaching approach on student engagement, motivation, and academic performance in Grade V Science at Rinchen Kuenphen Primary School. Using a mixed-method design with 32 students over eight weeks, data were collected through tests, surveys, observations, and a reflective diary. Findings showed significant improvement in academic performance (mean scores increased from 6.64 to 9.14) and very high levels of student motivation. The study concludes that blended teaching creates an engaging, student-centered learning environment and recommends its integration into primary classrooms.
