INTEGRATION OF SPEECH AND THINKING IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE IN PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

This article explores the importance of integrating speech and thinking in

developing communicative competence among primary school students. It emphasizes that the

harmonious development of speech activity and logical thinking enhances students’ ability to think

independently, express their ideas clearly, and actively participate in communication. The paper

analyzes effective teaching methods based on an integrative approach, including the development

of dialogic and monologic speech, the use of problem-based situations, and question-answer

techniques.
