This is something I do often, basing lessons around a text or video, posing challenging questions and letting the students know we will discuss the questions together and they will be expected to share their answers with everyone. I think starting off with a small example and putting a slight idea in weaker students' heads and then beginning with them is a good way for them to build confidence.

I think these are good when you can plan a whole week around this being the end goal. Build up to it to give students a knowledge base and feel comfortable participating in it.

Great for the beginning of class. A fun activity is to present a list of questions for students to choose from and give them a few minutes to write down their answer. Have the students in pairs that will rotate. Give the students a time period to answer their questions to their partner. Then go around the room and have the students tell the partners answer. As you get more into it, shorten the time frame they have to explain their answer to the partner so they can't rely on reading from the script.

This is a German game that I've adapted for my S to practise new vocabular. Each S has to pick a word (from a stack) & either explain, draw or mime it to his/ her team - they have to guess word within 1 minute. Each correct guess = 1 point.
