Abstract
The article delves into a challenge concerning the advancement of foreign language communicative skills among elementary school students. It introduces the notion of sub-competencies within foreign language communicative skills, which serve as integral components. Furthermore, the paper outlines findings from an experimental investigation on the development of foreign language communicative competencies in primary school students. The primary objective of the article is to justify the cultivation of foreign language communicative competences in elementary school students through collaborative work in pairs and small groups, dialogues, discussions and games. The author supports the effectiveness of these methods by employing methodological tasks. The reliability and validity of the study's findings and conclusions are assured through the analysis of sub-competence formation at all levels. The tasks assigned within educational activities serve as the foundation for fostering foreign language communicative competencies. In this article, the author also emphasizes the competency-based approach of contemporary foreign language instruction. This competency includes various communicative tasks by motivating young learners. Within this research, communicative competence is defined as the key point. Communicative competence of primary school students is a harmonious combination of communicative sub-competencies, as well as a stable experience of their successful application.
