Oracy in the Classroom

Help me give my students the tools to interview each other and staff to improve their speaking skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Winston's classroom raised $167

This project is fully funded

My Project

We will use these recorders to interview each other and to play back what was stated. My goal is to increase my Language Learners oracy and to improve their confidence. My students just got to the United States and are struggling to learn the language. They are willing to work extremely hard to improve their language skills.

They have learned their letters, are beginning to master the sounds, are able to start reading and writing.

We are working on listening and speaking as well. This project is targeting their speaking skills, so they gain confidence.
