What students see

Talk about a pet or another animal in your life. What is it, how long have you had it, and what does it do that makes you laugh? One minute, no notes.

Why it works

A familiar topic keeps attention on fluency, and "no notes" stops students from reading a script.

How to run it

  1. Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
  2. Share the Topic link with your students.
  3. Watch the posts come in. They appear to everyone as soon as students publish.

Make it yours

Change the topic each week: a meal, a weekend plan, a favorite place. Ask students to reply to one classmate with a follow-up question.
