Public Speaking Bingo
Objective
Students will strengthen their public speaking and active listening skills through a peer observation activity. By identifying and reflecting on common speaking behaviors in a bingo-style format, students will expand their public speaking vocabulary, recognize effective communication strategies, and engage in meaningful discussions to support continuous improvement.
Directions for this Extension Activity:
In this activity, students will create their own Public Speaking Bingo cards by selecting and placing behavior squares on a template. As classmates present, students will mark off behaviors they observe, such as saying “um” or making eye contact. The class will then reflect on what makes a speaker effective.
Duration: ~20-25 minutes* [will vary based on students' level of need]
Digitability Curriculum Concepts: Financial Literacy, Functional Academics
