What steps are involved in speaking? Think about conversation that you have with your friends or family. What do you do before you say something?

Подумайте о разговоре, который вы ведете с друзьями или семьей. Что вы делаете, прежде чем что-то сказать? Когда мы разговариваем с другом на родном языке, наш мозг думает быстро и легко. Мы не замечаем, что говорение очень сложно. Однако, когда мы говорим на иностранном языке, нам требуется гораздо больше времени, чтобы заговорить. Это потому, что говорение состоит из многих этапов. Ключевые слова: общение, речевая деятельность, словарный запас, произнесение, разговор, интервьюирование, чат, язык. To speak we do the following: 1. Listen and understand other people. 2. Have an idea and want to express it. 3. Remember vocabulary which can express this idea. 4. Use grammar correctly. 5. Pronounce the words understandably. Speaking is an active skill. Speakers think of everything themselves, the ideas, the words, the grammar. Finally all of the words and grammar must be pronounced clearly. This is much more difficult than listening.

It doesn’t practice the skills students will need to speak English fluently. When students practice speaking in the classroom, they should do the steps which are part of speaking. They need to think of original ideas, remember words and use grammar themselves. Speaking which resemble real communication prepare students better for speaking outside in the classroom. How to create real speaking in the classroom. Even if teachers are ready to practice speaking the lessons will not be successful unless the students themselves want to talk. But how can teachers make students want to talk. We need to choose interesting, useful and fun themes for our lessons. Remember that students love to talk about themselves and their opinions, their hobbies and their families. Students like to play games in English. They also enjoy using their imagination to create situations. What would they say on an English singers or actors or the president of America? The best speaking activities have one or more of these elements an opportunity for students to talk about themselves, a chance to use English as a game, or a time to fantasize about a story or situation. Good speaking activities also resemble real world conversations. They require students to find out information by asking questions and listening to the answers. In this way they communicate with their groupmates and you their teacher. Students use English to describe a situation which has meaning for them. This shows students the context for words. Thus they learn that a word is more than letters on paper, it has a meaning and other words associated with it. Using words within a context helps students remember vocabulary and use words correctly. Communicative speaking activities often have tasks which make students talk about themselves, their ideas, or a situation within the classroom. There are three main kinds of communicative activities: opinion gap activities, information gap activities and guessing games. Within these activities, someone has information which other students need to complete a task. This situation creates “communicative need”. Communicative need means students have a reason to communicate with each other. Students listen and speak to each other to complete the task successfully. Students exchange personal information about themselves in opinion gap activities. They interview each other using words which they are learning in class. For example if your class is learning about professions they can discuss their family jobs. While interview each other they fill in a chart. After they are finished interviewing their partner you discuss the answers. Students who are good at English can also use it by taking more difficult topics. Students exchange information about other topic in information gap activities. In these activities one student has information that the other student needs. For example half of the students are given a piece of paper with information. The students in the other group should interview them and by this way they can learn their information. When they are finished asking questions they may look at the 377 ResearchBib IF-2023: 11.01, ISSN: 3030-3753, Valume 1 Issue 8 ISSN: 3030-3753. VOLUME 1, ISSUE 2 paper to see if their answers are
