Fun activities for teaching argumentation

In the teaching of FLE, playful activities have an unlimited importance. Besides, the teacher of any foreign language must use in the learning-teaching process, games, exercises that favor the playful part. The meeting between the playful part and the educational part shows a great complexity; from here arise very different practices and conceptions. The aim of this work is to show how these two techniques can be combined in the best possible way, to demonstrate how the FLE teacher can use this great advantage and, why not, to promote this aspect. So, playful activities for teaching argumentation are definitive for an FLE teacher. I aim in my work to find the role of argumentation, to underline the difficulties of arguing of the students, to show two different approaches of argumentation: the one of convincing - which has a logical component and the one of persuading - which has an affective component. In addition, I will try to find methods and playful activities that facilitate the teaching of argumentation.
