Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.

Success: present a 45–60 second proposal with a claim, a fact, a limit and a question. Prepare Text C, notes and a timer. (AC9E5LY02, AC9E5LY07)

  1. Set audience · 2 min. Learners choose a fictional librarian or class decision group. Ask what that listener needs to decide.
  2. Model · 4 min. Teacher gives a short example, then labels claim, “36 books”, condition and next question. Speak at a pace a listener can follow; no memorisation requirement.
  3. Plan · 5 min. Learners choose speech, AAC sequence, recorded audio with consent, or spoken plus visual. They may use notes, not a full script.
  4. Rehearse · 7 min. Pairs deliver; listener paraphrases the recommendation and asks one clarifying question. Teacher samples focus learners and arranges later quiet time for the rest.
  5. Revise · 4 min. Learner moves the source fact earlier if listener missed it, or adds the condition that was absent.
  6. Exit · 3 min. Listener writes: “I heard the claim ___ and still need to know ___.” This checks clarity, not acting confidence.
