Teacher models the breakdown on an OHPT, with input from student discussion. Students choose one question from the Guideline Interview Sheet that they are going to expand into a prepared speech. They brainstorm and mind-map ideas that they can talk about. Then they share these ideas with their partner and see if thy can add more. Students write the draft of their speech, using the SEXY structure for each paragraph.
Teacher returns to original text of prepared speech.
Students listen to it again and read it again, this time looking for distinctive features of language. Discuss with partners, then teacher-led discussion about features of oral language eg. Teachers may wish to provide another contrasting example. Students return to draft of speech. They now write a 2nd draft, keeping the SEXY structure but adding 2 features of oral language from the list.
