Hi members,
Please find attached below a set of activities relating to comprehending phones messages and to filling in message forms. These worked well in a disability class. There was a lot of discussion as a group and we tried to focus on the key pieces of information that the clients need to identify for a quality phone messaage. Hope you find it useful. Peta |

I am using this idea with my students at Intro level to Children's Services and Community Work and at Voc Prep level. Some of these students have literacy issues and low self-esteem. By creating a little avatar that speaks with your voice or theirs, students can hear how words are pronounced correctly and feel good about using technology as it is quite simple and engaging to use. The site is called Voki and the address is www.voki.com

I used this article and activity in an adult literacy class with a wide range of ability levels. We read as a group, discussed various aspects of the pros and cons, completed the attached questions.
We had planned to work on debating and then debate the topic, but the students were not interested in participating in this kind of activity. |
