conversely, the most simple resourcescan be the most excitingand useful We havebeenfortunate to spendquite a lot of our time working not only in'hi-tech' environmentswith computersand video,but alsoin classroomswhere there is little more than blackboardand chalk and someout-of-datecoursebooks.Someof our most interestinglearningand teachingexperiences(asConfuciussaid,a teacheris 'alwaysready to teach;alwaysready to learn') havebeen not in the comfortablewell-resourcedsmall classroomsof a private Ianguageschool,but in classroomswhere only the minimum of equipmenthasbeen available.Equally,someof our most memorableteachingexperiences in'hi-tech' classroomshavebeen when we haveabandonedthe cassetteor video or glossy coursebookand got to work with that most preciousresourceof all, the learners'ownexperienceand imagination Teachersoften haveto usematerialswhich are out of date,or contain subject-matterirrelevantto their particular group of learners.For example,we havehad greatdifficulty explainingthe conceptsof the fridge -freezerand microwave oven to Tibetans.In the sameway,learnerswho havespentall their livesin northern countries might have difficulty with an exercisefrom an African textbook which asksifthey preferyam or cassava So over the last few yearswe havebeen trying to design materialswhich can be usedin aswide a rangeof teachingsituationsaspossible The activitieswe suggestare as flexibleasthe human imagination is creative;they are'teacherresourcematerial'which teacherswill be ableto adjustto suit their particular environment.In thinking about universallyapplicable,'lo-tech'materialswe havecome up with a list of criteria that needto be met The materialswill needto: be usablein largeclasses aswell assmall be suitablefor adult learnersaswell assecondarylearners,and if possibleeasilyadaptableto a primary context be centeredon the universalsof human experience Introduction :f: cover the main languageskills and have a useful baseof grammar and topic vocabulary traditional enough to be recognizableby all teachers,and thus b€ ',,, give them a senseof security,while providing communicative activitiesfor learners ,, be non-threateningin the demandsthey make on learners ,i: ! teacher-based'resource material' rather than books for learners ri; assumethat no technical and reprographic resourcesare available and be basedon the human resourcerather than the technical , be culturally neutral,not context-bound,and thus be flexible,easily adaptableby the teachersto their own culture and teaching context be flexibleenoughto complementa standardsyllabusor coursebook Simple SpeakingActivities This book containsthirty activities,designedaccordingto the criteria above,for developingthe speakingskill at elementarylevel Eachactivity hasthree main stages: r, ' rl Settingup-This introducesthe learnersto the topic The activity may be demonstratedto the whole class,or learnersmay make materialsto be usedduring the speakingpractice Speakingpractice-This is the main part of the activity The learnerscommunicatewith eachother in pairs or groups,or competeasteams Feedback-The learnerscomeback togetheras a whole class.A few of them may report to the rest of the classon things they have talked about in their pairs or groups.This is the time when the teachergivesfeedbackon the languagepractised,and dealswith anv oroblems It is especiallyimportant in speakingactivities,when learnersare often working in pairs or small groups, that they know exactlywhat to If they are confused,much valuablespeakingtime will be wastedand no-one will enjoy the lesson.Many of the activitiesin this book start with a demonstrationof things the learnerswill later in their pairs or groups.A demonstrationcan be done: Settingup On your own in front of the classas,for example,in 16'Rooms in a flat' and 25'Jobs' ::r With a learner,or learners,in front of the classas,for example,in 3'Numbers'and 14'Describingpeople' , With the whole classas,for example,in 2'The alph4bet'and 'Nationalities' r; Introduction However clear you think the demonstration has been, it is alwaysa good idea to double check that everyoneknows what to Other activities begin with the learnerspreparing materials that they will uselater on For examplein 5'Personalinformation'the learners copy a form that they will later fill in with their partner's details,and in 29'Describingactions I'they preparepiecesof paper with actions written on them that they will later share The setting-upstageof the lessonis also a good time to practisethe pronunciation of any words and phrasesthat you know your learnerswill find difficult You will find help with many common problemsin the'Pronunciation points' sectionof eachlesson Speakingpractice A speakinglessonis a kind of bridge for learnersbetweenthe classroomand the world outside *eakinB Iearningnew language in the classroom Olacece using languageto communicate in real life In order to build this bridge, speakingactivities must have three features.They must give the learnerspracticeopportunitiesfor purposefulcommunicationin meaningfulsituations Compare thesetwo activities: Activity TEAcHER 'Youmust your homework.'Repeat LEARNERS'Youmust your homework.' TEACHER Good.'Youmust arrive at eighto'clock.'Ben? 'Youmust arriye at eighto'clock.' BEN TEACHER Good.'Listento the teacher.' Sara? 'Youmust listen to the teacher.' sARA Activity Setting up f Tell the learnersthat you would like them to think of good rules for learning English.Write one or two exampleson the board: Youmuet epeakEn7liahin claae Youmuatn'Lepeaklmolher longueJin class, Give them a few minutes to think on their own lntroduction Discussion Put the learnersin groups of three or four and ask them to sharetheir ideas.Remind them to use'must' and'mustn't' Tell them to prepare Ten Rules for Learning English and to write them down on a sheetof paper When all the groups have finished making their rules, collect their ideasand write them up on the board The most obvious differencebetweenthe two activitiesis in the way they are organized.In Activity the teacher is talking, first to the whole class,then to individual learners.In Activity the learnersare talking to eachother in small groups This type of learner-learnerinteraction in pairs or groups provides far more practicein using the languagethan the more traditional teacher-learnerinteraction.In a classof twenty learners,a twentyminute activity where the teacherasksthe learnersquestionswill give the learnersa total of only about ten minutes' speakingtime, i.e half a minute each.And the teacher(who doesn'tneed the practice!)getsten whole minutes' speakingtime In contrast,a twenty-minute activity where learnersare working in groups, askingand answeringeachother's questions,will give them many more opportunitiesfor practice Both activitiesprovide a lot of repetition of the structure'must (+ verb)', and both so in a fairly controlled way In Activity 1, the control is provided by the teacherwho tells the learnerswhat to In Activity 2, control is provided by the examplesentenceson the board However,Activity I providesrepetition with no context The sentencesare random and unrelated.Such repetition is virtually meaningless:the learnersare simply repeatingthe and structure.They haveno idea why they are sayingthe sentences, possible without in fact it would be to the activity understandinga word! In Activity 2, there is a context-making rules for learning English-and all the communication is relatedto this context This makes the activity much more meaningful for the learners In Activity 1, the learnershaveno senseof purpose in producing they are merely doing what the teachertells them, their sentences; and the only purpose of their repetition is to practisethe structure In Activity 2, however,the learners have a goal-making the rules-and the languageis used for the purpose of achievingthis goal This mirrors real-life situations much more closely,as well as making the activity more interesting and motivating for the learners Introduction There are many different techniqueswhich can be used to create meaningful contextsfor speakingpractice in English For example: Ask and answer-Learners ask and answerquestions Describeand draw-Learners work in pairs.LearnerA has a picture which learnerB cannot see.LearnerA describesthe picture and learner B draws it Discussion-Learners work in pairs or groupsto find out each other'sideasor opinions on a toprc Guessing-The teachet or someof the learners,haveinformation which the others have to guessby asking questions Remembering-Learners closetheir eyesand try to remember,for example,items from a picture or the location of objectsin the classroom Miming-A learner mimes, for example,a feeling or action which the others have to identifi' Ordering-Learners arrange themselvesin a particular order (for example,alphabetical)by asking questionsuntil they find their correctposition Completing a form/questionnaire-Learners ask and answer questions,or provide information, in order to completea form or questionnaire Role play-Learners act out an imaginary situation The learners either use a dialogue,or the teachergivesthem instructionsabout what to say There are examplesof all thesetechniquesin this book Materials Severalof the activities in this book need no materials at all Where materialsare needed,they are usuallyvery easyto prepare.For example,some activities require every learner to have a small piece of paper or card with information on it: 'Tellingthe time'and 'Nationalities' are two of these.The information is alwaysvery brief, so they will not take long to prepare.Indeed,in somecases, for example12 'Shapes'and30'Describingactions2', the learners make the piecesof paper themselvesas part of the activity In severalof the activities,we haveprovided pictures, plans, or questionnairesfor you to copy.Thesemay be drawn on the board, on largepiecesof paper ('posters'),or on piecesof card ('flashcards').In the caseoflarge picturesand plans,postershave obvious advantagesover drawings on the board: you can prepare them in advanceand they can be stored and used again.Tiy to find a cheapsourceof largesheetsof paper for posters.In Madagascar, for example,the teacherswe worked with found the sheetsof paper lntroduction usedfor wrapping vegetablesin the market were ideal for making posters.A good way to fix postersor flashcardsto the board is to pin a length of string along the top of the board like a clothes-line You can then useclothes-pegsto peg your postersto the string! Someactivitiesneed two different posters,one at the back and one at the front of the class.Learnersthen sit in pairs,one facing the front and one facingthe back.The reasonfor this is to createan 'information gap'.Eachlearnerhas different information which they haveto exchange.The posterscan be pictorial, for examplethe two comic figuresin 13 'Partsof the body',or written, for example the two half-dialoguesin 23'Leisureactivities' Realobjectsor'realia' can be usedas an alternativeto drawings,for examplein 21'Shopping' Glassroomorganization If your learnersare new to working in pairs and groups,you will need to introduce thesewaysof working with care.Here are some tips to help you: Introduce pair- and groupwork gradually.First get your classused to doing very simple activities,practisinglanguagethey are confidentwith At first the activitiesshould not be too long-for exampleyou could introduce a short one at the end of a lesson Tell the learnerswho to work with rather than giving a vague instruction like 'Find a partner' or 'Get into groupsof four' If your classis working in pairs and you havean odd number of learners, make one a group of three It is important to give clearsignalsto show when eachstageof the activity beginsand ends.For example,when you want learnersto begin an activity you should say'Startnow' or'Go', and when you want them to stop,you should clap your hands,ring a bell, orperhapsmost effective-silently raiseyour hand You can teach them to raise their hands too as they stop talking This way the silencespreadslike a ripple The teacher's role While learnersare working togetherin pairs or groups,you have the opportunity to give them individual attention There are several rolesyou might need to adopt: Explainer-If somelearnershavenot understoodwhat to or haveproblemswith the language,you will need to help them If a large number of learnershavethe sameproblem, it is probably better to stop the activity, explain to everyone,and then start again 24 Daity routines L ANGUAGE 'Everydayactions'vocabularyarea(for example,get up, have breakfast,go to work) When you -?
