I used the 'Say It, See It' app in my English lesson today to help some  pupils visualise some sentences they had been working on. The pupils loved it and got very excited. It helped their understanding of the sentence to see a visual depiction of it.

      School breakfast clubs have long been a place where students start their day with nourishment, ensuring they are ready to learn. But what if these clubs could be more than just a meal? What if they could spark communication skills, build confidence, and address the diverse needs of students? This is where Oracy Champions steps in, transforming the humble breakfast club into an impactful part of the school day. A New Approach to Morning Routines Oracy Champions is an innovative platform designed to enrich children’s speaking and listening abilities through interactive activities. By integrating oracy sessions into school breakfast clubs, educators can create an environment that not only fuels the body but also nurtures essential communication skills. The benefits extend beyond just speaking practice; it’s a way to reach students who often feel overlooked in the traditional classroom setting. Supporting English as an Additional Language (EAL) Students For students learning English as an additional language, starting the day with structured speaking activities can be transformative. Oracy Champions provides these students with a safe space to practice verbal skills, build vocabulary, and gain confidence. This early morning engagement is crucial for EAL students, offering them the opportunity to develop language skills in a supportive, low-pressure environment before the school day begins. Enhancing SEN Support Students with special educational needs (SEN) often require tailored approaches to learning. The interactive, game-based nature of Oracy Champions allows teachers to adapt activities to suit various learning profiles, ensuring every student is included. By participating in guided oracy activities during breakfast clubs, SEN students benefit from routines that enhance their social and communication skills, setting a positive tone for the rest of the day. Addressing Behaviour and Diverse Learning Styles Behavioural challenges in schools can sometimes stem from students feeling misunderstood or unengaged. Oracy Champions brings a fresh way of engaging students with different learning styles, using voice-based activities that cater to auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learners alike. These interactions help reduce frustration and improve classroom behaviour as students start their day feeling heard and understood. Building Digital Literacy In today’s world, digital literacy is just as important as traditional literacy. By incorporating Oracy Champions into breakfast club activities, schools can introduce students to the responsible use of technology in a way that is educational and practical. The platform’s features promote skills that extend beyond speaking, including digital communication etiquette and basic navigation of educational software.
