A1 Al Subahi, Abdulhai AB Speaking is considered the most important skill of language communication. That is because languages are found first spoken, but later might be read or written. At intermediate stage in Saudi schools students are unable to speak English fluently although that they have studied English for three years since fourth grade elementary. Students at intermediate school encounter some problems in producing English orally due to ineffective strategies of teaching, insufficient activities of practice and inadequate devices of assessment, Further, the contrast between Arabic and English may increase such a handicap and make it more complex. Therefore, speaking must be taught as a skill to bring about psychomotor experiences for students and as an ability to produce communicative competence.
