Over approximately 15 days, students establish classroom communication routines and develop confidence as listeners and speakers. They will practise active listening, asking relevant questions, building on others’ ideas, expressing opinions with reasons, retelling and summarizing experiences, and adapting language for different audiences and purposes. Students will explore how tone, facial expression, gestures, and word choice affect meaning. They will participate in partner conversations, collaborative discussions, oral storytelling, and short presentations. Instruction will explicitly address respectful turn-taking, clarifying questions, complete sentences, vocabulary development, and oral conventions. The unit culminates in a prepared oral presentation or storytelling performance supported by visual or physical representations.
