Conducting Stimulus-Based Conversation with Linoit

This was the first oral activity in class. My main aim was to collect a whole range of responses by all pupils. A tuning-In-activity on the pre-requisites of Stimulus-Based Conversation (SBC) was conducted. After the discussion, I taught pupils that the stimulus provides the scope of the conversation. Pupils were also shown the mark scheme to familiarise what is needed to do well.  

I informed them that this was a kind of pre-test to have a feel of the type of responses. 
Pupils were introduced to Linoit and given specific instructions on how to post their thoughts on the canvas. The sharing of their responses took about 15 minutes. I had to arrange the post-its on the canvas to allow pupils to read their peers’ comments. After this, we conducted a group discussion on the strengths and the areas of improvements of some responses with regards to the accuracy of the language used and the type of responses. ( Language, Accuracy & Response – see checklist) 



Pupils were provided with a checklist as they informally assessed their peers’ responses.
