One of their final tasks was to do a fishbowl exercise where they interview an immigrant. This was staged and varied by constantly changing the immigrant they had to interview or portray. From someone fresh off the boat, to someone seeking asylum and someone who had been living as an immigrant for more than 10 years. I think this went a long way in fostering empathy but even more than that they got to practice how a live interview would go

We regularly play taboo with vocabulary words.. my goal is to trick them to forgetting that they are in a foreign language class.

My kids are just getting used to Ib style examination and marking...So I generally have tried to give them a mini essay  topic from past paers and then follow up with a debate and then follow with a recorded interview. We have a small cohort so my focus is to individualise attention.

Students in my classes also take debate class as an extra curricular activity and love it when they get the chance to show off their debating skills in class!

Think, Pair, Share is the go to in my class. I think it is a great method to encourage interaction and do peer and self assessment!

I agree Tanya! I do this with Literary texts as well. Although a little harder, I did this with Benjamin Button the other day where the students had to role play a day in the life of, at different stages of his life. It worked really well!

I really like using the Harkness model / method especially when you have students who are reluctant to speak in class. I also give the job of recording the interactions to students who sometimes are not fully engaged with the class / discussions and it seems to work really well!

Sometimes I do these with literary texts - such as Helen Keller - and ask the students to put themselves in her situation to see what they would do.

Another way that I just thought of are some of the Kagen structures (https://education.wm.edu/centers/sli/events/ESL%20101/kagan-cl-structures.pdf). These are fun and really helpful!

I have a very small F2F class (3 students) and one virtual student so it's difficult to do Pair work. We usually do whole group discussions using conversation sticks (popsicle sticks with various beginnings).

I always do informal chats with my students about their day or various other things that come up during the course of class. It's a good way of creating connections too!

Before virtual classes, I would ask my students to work in pairs to discuss a given topic or question. I also liked working this way if I wanted them to share feedback on an assignment. I added a bit of fun by asking them to switch partners when I played some music (similar to musical chairs).

I believe there is always an element of informal chat in class. Ice-breakers come to mind. There are many types of ice-breakers that require our students to interact with one another spontaneously for diffrent reasons.
