Abstract
This article highlights the effectiveness of implementing theme-based model of CBI (content-based instruction) in developing young learners’ speaking skills, as well as it offers an effective way of practising a new language in a meaningful and memorable context. We know that teaching speaking in English in primary education is one of the most demanding, at the same time challenging and rewarding jobs, and young learners are “me”-focused learners, respond emotionally to learning activities. Therefore, teachers should know how to create a warm, friendly English atmosphere in the classroom, how to use different types of activities and how to set up activities in order to enable primary school children to work together in groups. Moreover, this article is based on the study conducted with primary school children to identify the effectiveness of using theme-based CBI in teaching speaking, as well as enhancing young learners’ speaking skills.
