Methodology of Teaching English

Abstract

Teaching English as a foreign language can be fun and meaningful when teachers apply communicative activities in their classrooms. Students will feel motivated and they will participate interacting with others enthusiastically. These activities can definitely encourage learners' participation, contributing to improve their oral production of the English Language. Teachers must know the importance of using appropriate communicative activities to encourage children speaking. It is imperative to understand that these activities need to be well designed or modified in order to develop this skill. This monograph has as its main objective to present some examples of games that teachers can use in an EFL classroom in order to develop children's communicative competence by engaging them in meaning-focused communication.
