12. Motivational Activity
Activity 1 - (Low Whispers)
The class will be divided into three groups. In this game,
participants sit in a line, and one person starts by
whispering a message to the next person. Each person
then passes the message along by whispering it to the
next player. The last person says the message aloud wins,
and everyone compares it to the original message to see
how it has changed during the relay. This game highlights
how messages can become distorted as they are passed
from one person to another.

communication
Oral communication involves
exchanging information through
spoken words, tailored to the

20. Six Types of Oral
Communication
Activities

21. One-on-One Speaking (Student-Student or Student-
Teacher
This can range from moments punctuating a lecture, where students are
asked to discuss or explain some question or problem with the person next to
them, to formal student conferences with their instructor.
Examples: Interviews, Confession, Telephone calls

22. Small-Group or Team-
Based Oral Work
• Smaller-scale settings for discussion,
deliberation, and problem solving.
• Appropriate for smaller classes and
allows levels of participation.
• Small group or team based oral work
encourages collaboration and
participation among individuals within
the group.
• Examples: Group reporting, Group
activities, Role-playing in smaller
groups

23. Full-Class Discussions
(Teacher or Student-Led)
• Typically, it is less agonistic, argument-based,
and competitive than debate and deliberation
but still dialogic in character.
• Often creates an atmosphere of collective, out-
loud thinking about some question, idea,
problem, text, event, or artifact.
• A good way to encourage active learning.
• Examples: Classroom setting either student led
or teacher led and Meetings

24. In-Class Debate and
Deliberation
• A structured consideration of some issue from
two or more points of view.
• Debates typically involve participants who argue
one side throughout, while deliberation allows
both movement by individuals within the process.
• Both feature reason-giving argument. Can be
applied to issues of many kinds, from disputed
scientific facts to theories, policy questions, the
meaning of a text, or the quality of an artistic
production.
• Can range from two participants to a lecture
hall.
• Examples: Debates and deliberations

25. Speeches and
Presentation
• Classically, the stand-up, podium
speech delivered by an individual from
an outline or script.
• A strong element of monologue, not a
dialogue can be built in with questions
and answer or discussion with the
audience afterward.
• Examples: Impromptu speaking,
Oration, etc.

26. Oral Examination
• Can take place in the instructor’s office, in small
groups, or before a whole class.
• Ranges from one oral question on an otherwise
written exam to an oral defense of a written
answer or paper to an entirely oral quiz or
examination.
• Difficult with very large groups, but an excellent
way to determine the depth and range of student
knowledge and
• to stimulate high levels of preparation.

27. Other sample oral activites:
Oral poetry - contains most of the elements
found in written poetry. Aside from rhythm, it
also uses figurative language. The
difference is, it is delivered or performed to
a live audience, hence, the body language
and emotions are better expressed,
creating a higher degree of response
among the listeners. Some features of oral
poetry are tone, meter, repetition, inflection,
mood and it perfects imagery.

28. 2. Songs - do not differ much from oral poetry. Songs
play a huge role in communication. It has religious,
social and political functions. It has similar features to
poetry added the lyrical element. A special musical
feature found in many different genres of music is
syncopation, an artistic play of rhythm, deviating from
the natural flow. Rap is a popular style of popular music
that magnifies the use of syncopation. It’s grooving
effect appeals mostly to young people.

29. Storytelling- is roughly defined as the sharing
of events and experiences that is meant to
entertain, inform, as well as to teach morals. By
stories, we may avoid communication barriers
by passing morals to children and young adults
indirectly. Everyone loves a good gossip or
story. It is a safe and brilliant way to keep the
children at home.

30. Activity 2 - Write me up!!
In this activity, the class will be
divided into six groups. In your own
words, briefly describe each type of
oral communication activity and give
examples each. Use your notebook to
accomplish this. Write a 2 50- word
essay about your understanding on
the types of oral communication
activities in relation to purposes of
