We know the power that thoughtful discussions and effective communication have on students' learning journeys. Our brand-new Oracy Toolkit is here to help you guide your students toward becoming confident, reflective communicators through engaging and interactive Lyfta lessons.

The Oracy Toolkit provides practical strategies and activities to enhance classroom discussions, including:

  • Guidelines for structuring discussions, from exploring storyworlds to debating and speech writing.

  • Best practice examples and discussion success criteria to help students develop key communication skills.

  • Creative ways to make talk visible, such as discussion mapping and role-based tasks.

  • Easy to implement activity ideas like to spark deeper, more collaborative discussions.

With activities adapted from Voice 21, this toolkit is designed to foster oracy in every student, ensuring all voices are heard. Whether you're new to Lyfta or looking to enhance your lessons, the Oracy Toolkit will help your students develop critical skills in speaking, listening, and reasoning.
