The objective of this standard is to develop the ability to retain information through conversation, not just to teach the rules of conversation.
-
This is an ongoing standard, being taught within every lesson, and there should be intentional instruction of expectations within the first week of school and then practiced and reviewed throughout the year, especially immediately following breaks or disruption of routines.
-
Students at this stage still need instruction, reminders, and opportunities for practice of speaking and listening.
-
This skill helps students to make connections across texts by first practicing making connections with pre-existing knowledge and ideas that are shared verbally.
-
Some examples of skills that students need to practice:
-
Waiting their turn, using appropriate volume, rate, eye contact, body language. Provide time for explicit instruction or review and practice of these skills.
-
Discussion rules change depending on the conversation situation:
-
Small group work
-
Large group
-
One-to-one
-
Students use schema or knowledge they already possess and texts previously shared in class to understand the speaker's message.
-
Active listening is the active pursuit of what another person is saying and feeling. Students who are actively listening will help further the discussion by asking meaningful questions, contributing on-target feedback, and/or paraphrasing the speaker’s message for clarification. Refer to the ELA OAS Glossary for a further explanation.
-
Verbal messages include words, phrases, and tone of voice that speakers use to add emphasis, clarify organization, make connections, and create ethos.
-
Nonverbal messages include pauses, facial expressions, eye contact, gestures, and body language.
|
Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
