Skills & Standards

Aligned to Alberta expectations, these activities connect speaking and listening goals with the crosscutting concepts of communication and patterns in how ideas are presented. Students develop disciplinary core ideas in English language arts related to oral communication, comprehension, and language use in context. Each worksheet includes built-in modeling opportunities, such as demonstrating strong discussion moves or an organized speaking structure before students try their own responses. Students also practice analytical reasoning by identifying what information matters most, matching responses to the prompt, and revising delivery based on listening cues. Finally, the bundle emphasizes evidence-based explanations by prompting students to reference what they heard or read when justifying clarifications and responses.

Perfect For

• Teachers seeking structured instruction
• Sub plans
• Homework or review
• Intervention or centers

How to Use

Use this lesson bundle over multi-day pacing (for example, 5 days at 20–30 minutes each, or 3 sessions plus a center rotation). Start with the discussion skills worksheet, add purpose and organization for drafting speaking plans, then follow with listening strategies and clarifying responses to strengthen next-step performance. Encourage students to use think-aloud modeling and quick partner rehearsals before writing or completing each worksheet item.
