The article presents the possibilities of using the disciplines: “Speech Culture and Expressive Reading”, “Modern Ukrainian language with a workshop”, “Ukrainian language for professional purposes”, and “Preschool language didactic” in the process of forming communicative competence of future preschool teachers on the basis of integration.It is determined that the important component of professional competence of an educator is communicative competence because a graduate of a higher education institution must be fluent in the native language, be able to communicate, interact with children and adults, and be ready to develop the ability of children to speak Ukrainian in various communication situations.It is emphasized that the formation of communicative competence of the future educator of preschool education should be aimed at mastering basic and interdisciplinary knowledge, psychological and pedagogical, professional and methodological, special and creative skills, education of value orientations, motives of pedagogical activity, communicative culture of personality, ability to develop own creative potential in the field of language education of preschool children.In the process of professional training the task of forming communicative competence in future preschool education specialists is realized in the process of studying all disciplines, although the priorities, in our opinion, are the disciplines “Speech culture and expressive reading”, “Modern Ukrainian language with a workshop”, “Ukrainian language for professional direction”, “Preschool language didactics”. Among the tasks that solve these disciplines, there are those that relate to the motivational, cognitive, activity, and reflective components of the communicative competence of the educator.The peculiarities of the formation of communicative competence in future specialists of preschool education during lectures and practical classes in the above disciplines on the basis of the principle of integration are revealed. A list of tasks of independent work in the disciplines “Ukrainian language for professional purposes” and “Preschool language didactics”, which provide integration of students' knowledge in the disciplines “Speech culture and expressive reading”, “Modern Ukrainian language with a workshop” in order to form communicative competence.The use of the principle of integration in the study of the above disciplines contributes to a comprehensive, high-quality and effective formation of communicative competence in future educators of preschool education institutions.
