This Bachelor thesis deals with communication in science class, especially interaction between teacher and students at a second grade of elementary schools and at a lower grade of multi - year high schools (gymnasiums). The aim of the thesis was to analyze the length of speeches of individual participants, the way of information exchange and the overall structure of communication during selected Science lessons. The theoretical part deals in detail with communication in general, but also with appropriate and inappropriate means of communication,which can be reflected in the following effectiveness of the communication. Emphasis is placed on pedagogical communication, its structure and participation of individual speakers. Practical part of the thesis was based on collection of qualitative and quantitative data, which served both more detailed description of communication structures and with determination frequency of questions and answers asked as well as length of the speech from individual participants of the conversation. A total of seven lessons of science teaching by different teachers in different elementary schools in the South Bohemia Region were analysed according to the established methodology. It was found that the most common method of teacher-student interaction was asking the teacher's questions, which were answered by the student. The monological interpretation was much less represented in the lessons. Communication also took place betwen students in group work. The IRF structure was the main pillar of interaction in the observed hours. The results show that the IRF structure and its modifications constituted the vast majority of all communicative exchanges. It is confirmed by the results of the analysis of lessons, including illustrative examples.
