This presentation will provide strategies for effectively using Oracy in an ELL classroom. Proficiency in oral expression is necessary in an academic context for effective communication and collaboration. In addition, the presentation will provide an overview of what Project Oracy is and the four Oracy Skills Framework. The project aimed to develop an Oracy Skills Framework that sets out: Physical, Linguistic, Cognitive, and Social-emotional. Using different grouping techniques, participants will learn how to implement them in an ELL classroom. These grouping methods are a vital component of teaching oral skills in a classroom. The Traverse Grouping technique will be utilized as an illustration to successfully perform a classroom talk activity.
