Ways of promoting and developing oracy at home:

  • Play games with rules to follow, ask your child to explain how to play
  • Have discussions with your child / discuss things on the television, news (age appropriate) / their learning in school
  • Play word or talking games such as ‘Would you rather…?’
  • Probing questions that require some reasoning, such as: What do you think about…? Can you explain how you did that? Do you agree/disagree? Why? Convince me challenges!
  • Which book character would you invite to your birthday party? Why?
  • Take it in turns to say a different word for a common word. For example: 'looked' could also be 'peered', 'noticed', 'spotted'
  • Play role play games that involve speaking such as playing shops, making telephone calls or acting out known stories
  • Talk about books and life experiences
