Objective: Listen to an example of a public speaker to identify key features and conventions
of oral texts.

 Audio Clip: Play a short (3–4 minute) audio clip of a well-known speaker (e.g., a
TED Talk excerpt, an impactful speech, or a motivational speaker).
o Choose a clip where the speaker uses effective public speaking techniques
such as clear structure, engaging delivery, and audience connection.
 Listening Focus:
As students listen, ask them to focus on:
o Structure: How is the speech organized? Identify the introduction, body, and
conclusion.
o Engagement: How does the speaker engage the audience (tone, pace,
gestures)?
o Public Speaking Techniques: What techniques does the speaker use to
communicate clearly and effectively?

3. Post-Listening Questions (5 minutes)

Objective: Assess students' understanding of the key features and conventions of oral texts.

 Guided Questions:
1. What was the main purpose of the speaker’s presentation? (inform, persuade,
entertain)
2. How did the speaker engage the audience? What public speaking techniques
were used?
3. Can you identify the structure of the speech? What were the key parts
(introduction, body, conclusion)?
4. How did the speaker prepare their speech? What strategies might they have
used to organize their ideas?

Reflection:
After listening and discussing the answers, explain that effective speeches always involve
careful planning, research, and practice.

4. Explanation of Key Features and Conventions of Oral Texts (7 minutes)

Objective: Teach students about the key elements of oral texts, public speaking techniques,
and the preparation process.

 Features and Conventions of Oral Texts:


Use the board or a slide to outline the following key elements:
o Clear Purpose:
Every oral presentation should have a clear goal (to inform, persuade,
entertain, or motivate). A good speech must know why it’s being given.
o Structure:
 Introduction: Capture the audience’s attention, state the purpose of
the speech, and preview the main points.
 Body: Organize 2-3 main points, each supported with evidence,
examples, or details.
 Conclusion: Summarize the main ideas and end with a strong closing
statement.
o Public Speaking Techniques:
 Engagement: Use tone variation, eye contact, and gestures to keep the
audience's attention.
 Clarity: Speak at an appropriate pace and ensure pronunciation is
clear.
 Confidence: Stand tall, make eye contact, and project your voice.
o The Preparation Process:
 Planning: Define your purpose and identify your audience.
 Researching: Gather relevant information to support your points.
 Organizing: Structure the speech with a clear introduction, body, and
conclusion.
 Practicing: Rehearse your speech to improve delivery and confidence.
 Presenting: Deliver the speech with clarity, engagement, and
confidence.

5. Group Activity: Speech Planning (5 minutes)

Objective: Put theory into practice by planning a short presentation in groups.

 Instructions:
Divide the class into small groups (2-3 students). Assign the groups with the Task 1

o …………………………………………………………………………………
…………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………..

Each group will:

o Plan: Decide on the purpose (inform or persuade) and identify the audience.
o Research: Briefly collect 2-3 facts or ideas to support their presentation.
o Organize: Create a simple structure with an introduction (hook), body (2-3
points), and conclusion (strong closing).
o Practice: Take 2-3 minutes to rehearse their speech within their group,
focusing on using good speaking techniques (tone, body language, eye
contact).

speaking techniques.
