In the first part of his article, the author suggests that priorites of task- based method are utopian, esspecially regarding children and youths. In the second part of the article, to support his theses, the author displays examples of communicative errors of children and youths learning Polish in Ukraine. The first group of errors sources from a lack of knowledge of communicative patterns (some communicative roles are unaccesible for children). Students often used a cliche from Ukrainian. The second group of errors sources from a lack of explicit sample patterns. The third group sources from sociolinguistic errors (clear topic overlapped with different realities). In the article the author puts a few questions: which communicative patterns should be taught, which of them would not be used by students (it concerns mostly official letters). In the last part the author draws conclusions, which inspire readers to attempt to answer a question, what are priorites of education: communication, correctness, sociocultural norm or an educational aspect.
