All right.
So now we're going to go through some samples.
And the way that the sample is going to work.
I'm going to be going going through parts two and three with each one of my eight volunteers.
Remember.
As a volunteer, I've told you for part number two, you can look at my screen and see the card.
For the eight volunteers that I have.
Make sure you have paper in front of you, pencil in front of you, because you have to be able to take
notes.
Right.
So and when we get to part number three, do not look at the computer screen.
All right.
I want you to really simulate when I call on your name.
When I call your name.
I'm going to I'm going to activate I'm going to ask you to unmute your mic and you need to turn on your
microphone and turn on your video.
Right.
Now for those of you that are listening.
For those of you that are listening, if you want to practice speaking for yourself, you know, you
can turn off the hour, mute the audio, and you can practice to yourself.
You can practice with yourself or practice to yourself giving a response.
Right.
You can you can sit there right now.
You can take notes and you can practice giving your own response.
One thing that I would suggest you do if you're practicing at home and giving your own response.
While the volunteers are giving their response.
It's a good idea to record what you're saying.
Or to really use a great application like Otter I.
Otter II is a great application that will transcribe what you're saying, that really gives you an opportunity
to see your language and see what you're doing, see what you're saying.
And so you have the option for those of you that are not volunteering, of speaking on yourself, on
your own and recording yourselves, you can look at your own work.
For those of you that are just listening to what the person is saying, I want you to please act as
a peer checker.
And what that means is listening to the person's part two and part three response and then giving feedback
on what you think about their pronunciation, fluency and coherence, lexical ability and grammar ability.
So for those are just listening.
Please, you know, you can take notes in front of you and just keep a record of what you think about
their responses.
Keep in mind, we're here to learn from each other and listen to each other.
Now for these first four samples, after the volunteer gives their response.
After the volunteer gives their response, then I'm also going to give a recorded response of mine so
you can hear what my response to part number two would sound like.
And I'm doing that for the first first four questions.
The first four questions.
All right.
So bovine you're going to do I'm going to take you through parts two and three.
Exactly.
On the exam.
You're going to do part two and then we're going to move directly into part three.
Okay.
All right.
You're going to see.
I'm going to have a clock on the screen in terms of the one minute to prepare and the 2 minutes to speak.
You're going to see it when I get to the question.
And I'm doing that for.
I'm doing that for teaching purposes.
On the actual exam, they're not going to give you a clock to look at.
I'm just doing that so everybody can see the time.
Okay.
All right.
And.
And then after you've finished part two and part three, the peer checkers will give feedback and I'll
try to give feedback to.
But it's difficult for me to give you feedback while I'm giving you the exam, give you doing both at
the same time.
But Pabon, if you're ready, we're going to go ahead and get started.
Okay.
Yes.
All right.
So this is set number one.
All right, Bevan.
Here is your cue card over here on the left, you can see your cue card right here.
Talk about a toy from your childhood that you like the most.
Please say, what was it?
Who gave it to you?
When did you get it?
And explain what you liked about it.
You have one minute to prepare.
All right, time's up.
Please stop.
You now have 2 minutes to begin speaking or giving your response, and you could begin speaking now.
This topic is quite interesting and it really bring up my childhood memories.
And also I'm talking about a really special toy, which I have basically it's a pretty small toy, but
it's very interesting and it's also how I have a good memories with Dad.
So it is a small toy car, which you call it as a super car.
So my dad gave it to me when I was when I'm around ten years old.
It's it's a small car, which is some 3 to 4 inch long and 1 to 2 inch width.
Okay.
So the speciality of the car is like if you drag it backwards, it will kick start and it'll kick start
and slide pretty fast in the forward direction.
So I used to play with that at every time and it's a pretty small like it's, it's even smaller than
my hand.
So I could able to carry that everywhere.
Like I used to carry that everywhere where I'm roaming like in my bus and my school and also the home,
like every time I used to play with that.
And yeah, as I said, my dad gave that to me like, hee hee hee.
You should give me a really good voice when he whenever he go around the places like he.
As for his job, he used to roam different places like this.
He used to get me the toys.
So.
But this toy is it's pretty strongly laid down my memories.
And also it is.
It is.
I remember it very well though.
It is a small one.
And yeah.
So I like.
I like the way it is.
Like so.
So nothing much to make any move there and nothing much to think about it.
You just slide backwards and it will go forward and you can run behind that and you can see it's moving
like a road usually.
Stop.
Please stop.
We're going to move on to part number three.
Pabon.
And remember, don't look at the screen right now.
Or it's the first question of Yvonne.
Is it a good idea for parents to buy their children many toys?
It really a good idea as a children and as a room?
How I don't have a good friend to get the things by reading or writing or listening, but as a toy.
So usually like nowadays, like the marvel come into the picture and also the super girls come in the
picture.
They understand about the how the how the toys are working and they build their own creativity.
And it also useful them to identify the colours and names and the pronunciation.
Like if it is a colour and it is a toy, like if he's talking about Iron Man or Spider-Man, it's all
they have to think about and also love about all these things.
It started building them the knowledge about that and also it started building and the interest of the
toy and and also it keep them active by playing that they build up some ideas on that that's really
helpful.
Next question.
Do you think children should share toys with their friends while playing?
That's really interesting.
And children should share toys while they're playing because as children will play with a good number
of children around.
Like, if I if I talk about myself, I used to play with my friends in my community.
So.
So if I started sharing my toys with my friend, like he he also shared his toys by that the all the
children will get to get habituated with all different toys.
And it's really a good opportunity to children to share.
And also it's build up the bonding and also friendship and the caring of sharing the, the, the, our
belonging to others.
And also while others shared it with the children, they also understand about the sharing of the thing
which is shared by others because it's not mine.
It should be take care of that.
So this kind of ideology and also the friendship and bonding will develop in between children at that
small age itself.
It's also a good idea to have a sharing.
And final question.
What kind of toys do you have in your home country?
So if I talk about if I talk about the culture and all.
So in my country, they do have a choice of gold as a choice made up of women that say, if I if I talk
about the culture, then the there'll be the skull sculptures.
Like who?
Who made the toys from the little, little wood.
There is one place they maintain that and beyond of that culture toys they.
In my home country there are all sorts of toys available which is around the world which are available.
And those toys are available in my home country, for example, the mobile toys and also the the automated
toys which can run and they play sounds like that.
So all these sort of toys are available in my country.
Thank you very much.
All right, Pavan, thank you very much.
You can turn off your audio and video, please.
All right.
Now, if you have any feedback for Bevan about what you heard in his parts to him, part three, please
put your feedback in the chat box right now.
Just a couple of things that I was able to pick up on.
Like I said, it's difficult to.
To try to score some or not really score, but give feedback and be asking questions simultaneously.
But in this part number two, he gave a lot of information, but at times it wasn't coherent.
And what I mean by that was Pavan was jumping between the discussion points, between discussion points
two, three and four, jumping around back and forth.
And when you're doing that, you're not giving information in a logical manner.
Also in your part, number two, you repeated some of the same things.
For example, you repeated about it being small, probably like five times.
And so when you're repeating a lot of the same information, that makes it makes it a challenge in terms
of showing your grammatical range.
The other thing that he needs to work on is pausing and hesitation.
When you have pausing and hesitation in your speech, it breaks up your coherence.
It makes it difficult to be able to follow what you're saying.
But provided you want to do a better job of using your notes and being able to flow in a logical manner,
going through all of your information on your part.
Number three, you didn't really answer the first question.
The first question in part number three was about, is it good to give children many, many, many toys?
That's the question you're asking.
Answering is about many toys.
All right.
And so you want to make sure that you are clear on the question that you can give a coherent response.
And then, like I said, you've got to work on that pausing and hesitation.
I can tell you how the vocabulary I mean, there was sometimes some words I didn't understand in terms
of pronunciation, but let me see what people have to say.
Yeah, some people somebody mentioned about using the word children was incorrect.
A lot of repetition.
The part number three was extended a little bit too long.
That's why I kind of cut it off sometimes.
Yes.
If you're saying I'm on between words, yes, it reduces your score because like I say it, it breaks
up the coherence.
If I say I'm going to talk about a place that I like, it's close to the west coast of Europe, right?
If I'm if I'm talking like that, it breaks up.
I do think for Von somebody, give me a good suggestion to slow down.
You're speaking very, very fast and you need to slow down.
Write, slow down, slow down, slow down.
Right?
Yes.
Slowing down can make a make a big, big difference.
There's no hurry, right?
There's no hurry.
I'd so.
Okay, everybody, you can stop with the comments now.
Like I told you, I'm going to give you a sample response that I gave for this response.
I'll let you listen to my response.
Although I've had many toys over my lifetime as a child, I would definitely have to say the most memorable
one was the Atari 2600 that I received for Christmas one year.
Now the Atari 2600 is a gaming system, and in fact, it's one of the first gaming systems to come out
that really the average consumer could get for still a pretty steep price.
Now, it came with many components such as video game cartridges and also joysticks.
So that is my favorite toy that I'm going to talk about today.
My mother and father presented this toy to me for my Christmas in 1978.
That was such a special time because on Christmas sometimes you get a gift from your mother or from
your father.
But this time it was a gift from my mother and my father.
And so that way it will always remain special to me.
As I said, this was 1978 and at that time I was around ten years old.
And this was my first big gift that I had ever received from my mother, father or anybody else.
Even after ten years old, I never received a gift as important as that Atari 2600.
Now, this was a very important gift to me because, number one, it sparked my imagination.
I saw alien beings and spaceships and all types of crazy things that I'd never seen before.
There was endless variation to this game, and most importantly, I could share it with my brother,
cousins and all of my friends.
So the Atari the Atari 2600 was a very memorable gift for me.
I said, go ahead and turn on your mic and your video, please, Bob.
