Chapter 5. Speaking more freely.


In this presentation the group gave us some keys on how to give a class of speaking with the students. Some aspects that teachers must handle in class are the follows:

-Speak a lot of English and repeat children's words or phrases when you are answering them.
-React to the meaning of what they are trying to say
-Encourage them by showing that what they are saying is more important than your correction.
-Wait until they finish speaking before you repeat and rephrase
-Show your approval for all your pupils' speaking - however short it maybe
-Provide activities that are fun and that have a purpose or a goal, and that have an end product that they can feel proud of.

As a reflection from the group's exposure, we can point out that we have liked in general quite as they have developed their work. We would like to point out that we notice the effort and dedication they have had to carry out the activities. We also really enjoyed their ability to expose in front of the whole class and the ease with which they did.
