  • Developing spoken language

Description

In this unit, pupils practise their speaking and listening skills in a performative way. Pupils learn the importance of speaking 'loud and proud' by standing up and using their voice for a range of purposes; show and tell, performing a poem and expressing an opinion.

This unit uses and builds on prior oracy work in the unit 'Speaking and Listening'. Pupils will use the skills they have learnt to project their voices, perform to others, answer questions and share their preferences. This unit requires pupils to have secured the prior skills of active listening, turn-taking and retelling. It will prepare pupils for future oracy units and initial debate as well as the discussion based elements of the English curriculum, including sharing book preferences, poetry performance and retelling a story.

  1. Standing to speak in 'show and tell'
