The non-extensive statistical mechanics has been applied to describe a variety of complex systems with inherent correlations and feedback loops. Here we present a dynamical model based on previously proposed static model exhibiting in the thermodynamic limit the extensivity of the Tsallis entropy with q<1 as well as a q-Gaussian distribution. The dynamical model consists of a one-dimensional ring of particles characterized by correlated binary random variables, which are allowed to flip according to a simple random walk rule. The proposed dynamical model provides an insight how a mesoscopic dynamics characterized by the non-extensive statistical mechanics could emerge from a microscopic description of the system.
