Speaking and Listening

Caboodle can tailor workshops that can be run to help raise speaking & listening skills, build pupil confidence in public speaking and raise the standards of communication within your school.

(NB: To combine Speaking and Listening with Enterprise skills, try Lions Lair)

Exercises can be used for:
• Preparing to speak through Relaxation, Breathing & Posture techniques
• Vocal projection and the Power of the Pause (Pitch & Pace)
• Working as a team to produce Ensemble presentation pieces
• Use of Emphasis and Facial Expression
• Developing Tone of Voice in a creative way to draw in an audience

Pupils can also be taught the elements of a good speech or presentation such as:
• Command and the importance of the First 90 seconds
• Setting common ground
• Setting Tone of Content
• Building Interest
• Knowing your Audience and how to meet their needs
• Rehearsal
• Use of Novelty, Drama, Questions, Humour and Topical References.

These workshops are particularly successful in schools where English is a second language to many pupils, or where there is a need to build confidence.
