Fairy-tale as a tool for communicative competencies development of a pre-school child

Abstract

Ability to communicate clearly is one of the core competencies on which the attention in the education of children of preschool age is focused. Fairy-tales are rich repository of ideas and suggestions, through which we might develop and practice basic communication skills of children in an attractive way. A fairy-tale might be attractive by its fantastic space, figures, moral solution of life, often unusual situations, it offers role play and its techniques allow a pupil to take a mask of somebody else. Text of the paper deals with communicative competences, which have been defined in the context of a research-based observation on the basis of reproduction of well-known simple fairy tale with 5-6 years old children.
