Speaker’s Corner
This is a fluency activity that is suitable for relatively high-level students in schools or classes that support the use of technology and/or shared online spaces. Introduce the concept of Speaker’s Corner by showing videos from the ‘You Are Here’ YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/user/youareherecafe/ Give the students a list of topics they can discuss. Possibilities include:
Divide them into groups of two or three and give them some time to prepare what they are going to say. If enough recording devices are available, pair teams up with each other so that one teach can take turns recording the other. Videos can then be uploaded to a private communal space (like a class Band). Students are encouraged (or required) to watch and comment on their classmates videos. For lower level students, the speaking task can be simplified and additional language prompts can be provided.
