Abstract


This study developed and evaluated a pedagogical methodology for improving communicative skills among primary school students in inclusive education settings. A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups was used. The participants were 80 students from Grades 2 to 4 in mainstream schools, divided equally into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received a 16-week intervention involving interactive teaching, speech development activities, and collaborative learning. Data were collected using observation protocols, teacher checklists, structured interviews, and communicative skill assessments. The results showed significant improvements in verbal and non-verbal communication, empathy, cooperation, and self-expression, particularly among students with special educational needs. These findings support the integration of structured communicative activities into inclusive primary classroom practice.
