There are three key elements to remember when planning and setting up speaking
activities:
1. Language used
2. Preparation
3. Why are the students speaking?
Language
When planning any speaking activity with students, analyse carefully the language they will be using to carry out the activity. If you use an activity from an EFL book, you will probably find comments on the language. If not, think about what you would say yourself when doing the activity and consider whether your students have learnt the language items yet.
Don’t make any assumptions about students’ knowledge. Spend some time in class reviewing the language that will be used. If students don’t have the language required to carry out the task, the results will be demotivation and frustration. Students might even resort to doing the task in their own language. Of course, you can work on the language in one lesson and review it very quickly in the following lesson before doing the speaking work.
Preparation
Preparation is vital as it will help students to speak more easily. One aspect of preparation is warming students up to the subject matter. If they are to communicate well, it’s important to engage them in the topic. This can be done by checking their prior knowledge and experience of the topic; e.g. if the speaking task is based on driving in big cities, ask them about their experiences of driving in big cities, what they think about it, do they have any anecdotes or unpleasant experiences they could share with the class? and so on. This phase can also be used to introduce vocabulary.
It’s also important to give students time to prepare what they are going to say and how they’re going to say it. This preparation can be done in pairs or groups. Give them time to consider their ideas and think about the language they will use. They can also do mini-rehearsals, which will build up their confidence and improve the end result.
