Theoretical methods used in the process of writing the article (the study of psychological, pedagogical, methodological and linguistic literature; comparison and generalization of the research results) and empirical methods (observation, experimental teaching, analysis of oral and written answers, monitoring of the process of learning a foreign language, forecasting) and mathematical research methods (ranking, statistical method) contributed to the achievement of the goal: the effectiveness of the use of publicistic texts in the process of teaching students reading and monologue speech was proved. The analysis of the specifics of interconnected teaching communication skills of foreign language reading and monologue speech and the study of the linguistic characteristics of publicistic texts made it possible to identify the criteria for the selection of texts for teaching students and develop recommendations for students and teachers for the formation of communicative skills in foreign language reading and monologue speech based on publicistic discourse in the process of interconnected learning. The use of the developed recommendations for the interconnected teaching communicative skills of foreign language reading and monologue speech can significantly improve students' performance in doing exercises with publicistic texts. To develop students' communicative skills of foreign language reading and monologue speech, a specific algorithm was developed, which comprises a sequence of educational actions at the pre-text, text and post-text stages. The algorithm offered in the article gives concrete instructions for students how to deal with the texts that are written in the field of publicistic discourse, enriches their knowledge of this style and teaches them how to make a speech in the framework of publicistic discourse. The perspectives of the developed methodology of interconnected teaching students communicative skills of foreign language reading and monologue speech based on publicistic discourse are concluded in the idea that it can be applied in teaching foreign language to students in universities within the discipline “the Practice of oral and written speech.”
