O 5.1 Prepare and practise a simple conversation re-using familiar vocabulary and structures in new contexts   View this objective over 4 years >> Learning opportunities Focus on correct pronunciation and intonation Ask and answer questions Use tone of voice and gesture to help convey meaning   Knowledge about language Develop accuracy in pronunciation and intonation Manipulate language by changing a single element in a sentence Use repair strategies to keep a conversation going   Language learning strategies Integrate new language into previously learnt language Apply a grammatical knowledge to make sentences Use a word or phrase known in one context or topic in a different topic or context   Teaching activities Make up simple sentences using nouns, verbs and adjectives. Use imagination to create interesting conversations using familiar language, e.g. take on the role of different people when having a similar conversation, use puppets and props. Use mime, gesture, facial expression and tone of voice to help to convey meaning. Consolidate learning of vocabulary and grammar by re-using it in other contexts, e.g. revise vocabulary such as greetings and numbers throughout the day, and re-use familiar verbs and adjectives. Use 'stalling strategies' to allow time to hesitate, e.g. use spoken expressions and gestures which allow for thinking time in the conversation. Play a miming game. In pairs or groups of three, children choose phrases or sentences made up of noun + adjective + verb. The class must guess the language words. Play the Change the Meaning game. Children take turns to change the meaning of a sentence they hear by changing just one element, such as a noun, verb or adjective. E.g. the teacher says 'The pink cat is eating a green banana'. A volunteer says 'The pink cat is buying a green banana'. The class must identify not only which word has changed, but also what kind of word it is (noun, verb, adjective). Build longer sentences by including more information such as adverbs or adverbial phrases, or conjunctions.
