Guess My word

Talking about and rehearsing vocabulary before you use it should improve your writing.

Try this!

Guess My Word?

With a talk partner, take turns to select one of the words from the Word Wall that you intend to use in your sentence and describe it. You must not say the word or a similar sounding word. Your talk partner should be able to quickly identify the word!

Natural Curriculum Top Tips:

Speak at a volume that only your partner can hear.
Maintain eye contact with your audience.
Try to speak confidently, avoiding hesitation and the use of filler words like “um”, “uh”, “like”, or “you know”.
Use hand gestures while speaking to add layers of meaning.

Detective Partnered Talk

Now that you’ve read the scintillating sentences, its time to do some detective work, develop your oracy skills and show your understanding of the lesson’s learning objective.

Try This!

Once your teacher has explained what you must identify, take turns to articulate your answer with your partner, using the following sentence stems:

Partner A: In the first sentence, …

Partner B: In the second sentence, …

Natural Curriculum’s Top Tips:

- - Think about what you want to say before you say it.
  - Speak at a volume that just your partner can hear.
  - Use grammar and punctuation vocabulary accurately.
  - Listen actively, politely correcting any mistakes your partner has made.

Hands Down Class talk

Try this!

Your teacher will pose a critical thinking question at the end of the film clip. You can speak freely without raising your hand, responding to each other’s ideas.

Natural Curriculum’s Top Tips:

- - Take turns and listen carefully. (No interruptions!)
  - Be respectful of all ideas, politely challenging those that are different to your own.
  - Speak at a volume that the whole class can hear.
  - Maintain eye contact with your audience.
