How to develop communicative activities
        People engage in communication because they want to say something to each other, they have some communicative purpose and, from their language store, they select and use the forms of expression they consider to be appropriate for the particular situation.         People engage in communication because they want to say something to each other, they have some communicative purpose and, from their language store, they select and use the forms of expression they consider to be appropriate for the particular situation.
From these generalizations about the nature of communication, we can obtain the following characteristics of communicative activities:
    I. Learners are motivated to do them; therefore, they are usually dealing with a variety of language, either receptively or productively;     II. Learners usually have some kind of communicative purpose, and their attention is centered on the content of what is being said or written and not the language form that is being used;
    III. While learners are engaged in the communicative activity, the teacher usually intervene, for example, by telling them that they are making mistakes, insisting on accuracy, or asking them to repeat aspects of the activity;
    IV. The teacher may participate in the activities, while also watching and listening in order to be able to give feedback.

Language Development

A child creates first his child tongue, then his mother tongue, in interaction with that little coterie of people who constitute his meaning group. In this sense, language is a product of the social process. A child learning language is at the same time learning other things through language — building up a picture of the reality that is around him and inside him. (Halliday M. A. K. Language as Social Semiotic: The Social Interpretation of Language and Meaning, London: University Park Press. 1978.)

To exercise or not to exercise...

Are more young people overweight than in the past and do they exercise enough? We decided to ask four young people what they thought about this problem.

1- HEATHER OHURUOGU, aged 14 from Leeds, tells us what she thinks about keeping fit.
“I know there have been a lot of stories in newspapers about how fat young people are getting, but we're not all sitting at home at a computer eating crisps and chocolate. Some of us do actually realise that keeping fit is quite important. If anybody should be blamed, I think schools and parents are the problem. At my school we have fewer hours of PE lessons than we used to have. The school has decided we need to spend more time preparing for our exams. My mum and dad trust me to take a bus home if I stay late at school for hockey training, but my friend Carly can't come because her parents work and they are worried about her travelling alone.”

2- OLIVER MCKENNA, aged 15, Edinburgh, sees things differently.
“I don't like organised sport or spending my time with guys skateboarding. I love computers – programming them, playing games on them, surfing the Internet and in my free time that's what I do. It's true that I do need to lose some weight, though. Next week, Mum's taking me to a doctor so we can ask about going on a diet. Dad wants me to join the gym he goes to, but I think it's a bit boring working out all the time. In fact, there's a computer game now called Wii. I'm thinking of getting it because you actually do the actions of the games – you know, things like swinging your arm to hit the ball in tennis. That'd be a good way to get some exercise!”

3- REECE WILKINS, aged 13, Swansea, has another view.
“I'm an active person and so are most of my friends. We all like to spend some time on our Nintendos, PlayStations or whatever – all young people enjoy computer games – but we also belong to football teams or some kind of sports club. We don't have to make an effort to be fit – young people like active games. No, our problem is that we eat too much rubbish. In fact, we drink a lot of bad things – sweet, fizzy drinks which are full of sugar and very unhealthy. Also, we all love fast food and often eat hamburgers and chips. If we ate better, I think most of us would lose the extra weight we have.”
 
4- HANK DARROW, aged 14, London, shares his opinions with us.
“I've spent the last four years trying to lose weight, and it hasn't been easy. My problem started when I was a baby – it wasn't really my fault. You see, I wasn't very interested in food, and so my mum made all kinds of delicious things to get me to eat. Of course, all those tasty foods were very fattening. My mum used to carry a bowl of food everywhere we went and would follow me around the house or playground trying to get me to eat just one more bite. Well, I got used to eating constantly and, by the time we all realised that I had gained too much weight, the damage had been done. Now I follow a special diet – it was hard at first, but once I got used to it, I actually like it. And I look and feel so much better – I don't want to go back to the way I was.”
