An ELT Glossary Fluency activities

Jumat, 13 Februari 2015




Fluency activities are conversation tasks used in the classroom where the focus is not on practising a specific language area, but on allowing the learners  to communicate their ideas with all and any of the language at their disposal.

For example : a lead-in discussion before a reading activity. The students are asked to tell each other everything they already know about the topic of the reading text. This activity has aims related to the following reading (activation of schemata, lexis etc) but also serves as a chance for the students to develop fluency. Its not a speaking activity built into a language systems lesson, where a primary aim will be the accurate, appropriate use of the target language item, but allows the students to practise speaking "naturally", focusing primarily on expresssing what they want to say comprehensibly and effectively.
