THE ISSUES OF SPEECH COMPETENCE DEVELOPMENT AT FOREIGN LITERATURE LESSONS

Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the problems of speech competence development in the system of foreign literature studying. It was established that basic directions of studying in the 7th form are to comprehend the text (emphasizing the theme, main thoughts, making plans of images etc.), develop independent thinking and an ability to analyze and make own judgments. An important task of literature education of V-VII form students is to develop an ability to clearly pronounce their thoughts and to choose and use extracts from the texts in verbal and nonverbal speech properly. Based on these criteria of language development for students of each "language age" we develop our own criteria and levels that serve as guidelines for the organization of language activities at the study of literature. Thus, in the work on the development of students' speech in connection with the study of literature, it is necessary to combine three approaches: psycholinguistic, based on the theory of language activity; linguodidactic, which studies the patterns of teaching native and foreign languages and methodological-literary, which takes into account the possibilities of literary studies, criticism and theory of public speaking.
