  3. Today’s objectives • To think about and identify different activities and support materials that promote ‘classroom talk’ • To practise speaking confidently about one’s observations, opinions, experiences, and difficulties

  4. http://www.conversationstarters.com/101.htm Conversation starters • Do you sleep with a stuffed animal? • Tell me about your first car. • Do you drink coffee or tea? • If you could have any super power, what would it be? • If you were stranded on a deserted island and you could have only 1 item...? • Do you believe in luck? • Do you play video games? • Do you believe people are inherently good? • How often do you shower? • What is your favorite board game? • What is your favorite charity? • Have you ever gotten a speeding ticket? • Do you prefer cats or dogs? • Would you prefer to live in the city or a rural area? • What is your favorite season? • Do you speak any other languages? • Do you sing in the shower?

  5. http://www.conversationstarters.com/101.htm 5Ws and 1H • Where did (do) you go to school? • What was (is) your favorite subject? • What was (is) your least favorite subject? • What's the first thing you do after school/work? • Were you the class clown or teacher's pet? • What do you do for a living? • What is your dream job? • What was your least favorite job that you've ever had? • What is the best thing that happened to you during the past week? • What is the worst thing that happened to you during the past week? • What is the most valuable thing that you own? • What would you do if you only had 24 hours left to live?

  6. Teaching students to ask for help: some strategies

  7. What questions do you want to be able to ask your students? • ‘brainstorm’ 3 each, and share one with a friend. Then put forward one per pair to the class and we will all work on perfecting the question as a group. Other questions can be emailed to me for clarification if you like! Newerapedagogy@gmail.com

  8. Image analysiswhat did you know, what do you now know/think, what do you now want to know?

  9. Activity: In your own words…listening, comprehensionprovide as much detail as you can during the two-minutes provided for each task Use grid paper to respond to 5 events/statements, using ‘your own words’ or ‘your own written voice’

  10. Activity: Line Debates • “everyone must vote in a democratic election” • “schools should strictly enforce uniform policies” • “cigarettes should be heavily taxed” AGREE, MOSTLY AGREE, NEUTRAL, DISAGREE, STRONGLY DISAGREE

  11. WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY, HOW Such questions are useful for when we want to discuss many things, such as: • homework tasks (before or after submission) • students’ results in a formal test or exam • the weekend (‘small talk’ in a casual tone) • ways to prepare for an exam • how to go about turning a Mind Map into the basis of an essay • resources required in order to pursue an art project
