Assalamualaikum Wr,Wb


Hi guys, how’s it going? I hope you are always healthy and happy just like me here J it’s been 3 months I did not write in this blog. Welcome back to my blog.  In this occasion I would like to share a review about the international journal that I have read, and this is my first assignment in the 4th semester. Well, I choose a journal under the tittle “Developing Speaking Skills Using Three Communicative Activities (Discussion, Problem-Solving, and Role- Playing) which compiled by Thanyalak Oradee. 



Why did i choose this journal? because i know in english skills speaking is most difficult feld to practice and as EFL student i want to know how to improving speaking skill and teaching speaking skill in class so that the student will not get bored. 


Introduction
In foreign language teaching and learning, ability to speak is the most essential skill since it is the basic for communication and it is the most difficult skill. Speaking English is the most difficult for learners. In particular, EFL learners often stammer when speaking English. This results from learners’ lack of exposure to authentic English language environments that allow them to use English for communication and expression. Furthermore, learners are not exposed to the cultures of the native English speakers. Speaking is the most important and essential skill. Mastery of this skill illustrates that the speaker possesses precise knowledge of language.
According to many teaching theorists, speaking skill can be developed through communicative activities which include an information gap, a jigsaw puzzle, games, problem-solving, and Role playing. In addition, the activities that can assist better speaking skills are free discussion and role-playing. The language activities are important factors in teaching language for communication. Activities help create interaction in the language classroom. Additionally, communicative activities can motivate the learners and establish good relationships between the teacher and the students as well as among the students thereby encouraging a supportive environment for language learning. 
The state and conditions of language learning and teaching at Satri Rachinuthit School, Udon Thani, were unsatisfactory. According to the report, it was found that their foreign language learning strand was 50.83%, which was at the average level and at the lowest among the other strands of the school. From the study of teaching theories in developing speaking skills using communicative activities and many related research studies, it was hypothesized that three communicative activities , discussion, problem-solving and role-playing, might help solve the problem. On the basis of this literature, as the researcher would study the impacts of these three communicative activities, discussion, problem-solving and role-playing up students’ development of speaking skills and students’ attitude towards teaching English speaking using the three communicative activities .
