| المستخلص: | The current study aims at investigating the effectiveness of using literature circles strategy on developing first year secondary stage students' speaking skills. The sample of the study consisted of 80 students enrolled in Kafr Saad secondary School in Damietta. The sample’s ages ranged between 15-16 years old. The sample was randomly assigned into two groups, the experimental group (40) and the control group (40). Students of the experimental group received training through literature circles strategy while students in the control group received regular instruction. Instruments of the study included: (a) an EFL speaking checklist to determine the most important speaking skills to be developed for first year secondary stage students, (b) pre-post speaking skills test to measure speaking skills before and after implementing the strategy with a rubric for correction. The researcher taught the experimental group using literature circles strategy for three months (12 sessions, one session per week). A t-test was used to statistically analyze results of the test. Findings of the study revealed that the experimental group students' EFL speaking skills were developed as a result of using literature circles strategy. It is concluded that literature circles strategy is effective in developing first year secondary stage students' speaking skills. |
