Abstract
This article explores the significance of communicative activities in language
learning and teaching. It emphasizes the role of interaction in developing linguistic
competence and fluency. By engaging learners in meaningful communication, teachers
can enhance not only the language skills of their students but also their confidence and
motivation. The article categorizes different types of communicative activities and
provides examples, highlighting their effectiveness in classroom settings. Ultimately,
the integration of these activities into language instruction is essential for fostering a
dynamic and engaging learning environment.
