5 Teach it! Interaction language needs teaching. Introduce key structures and encourage students to use and re-use them often.

• ‘Cartas de oro’ because they are some of the most useful words you’ll learn ever• Play them at any time we are talking in Spanish ‘whole class’ – needs to be relevant to

our discussion theme in some way• When you ‘play’ one you put it back in the envelope• Your aim is to use at least 3 per lesson – more than this (reward=spontaneous leader –

call home)

6 Spontaneity is planned!

What is spontaneous for the students can be planned for by the teacher! Incorporate a range of different tasks into lessons that require students to produce language off the top of their heads.
