Language Usage Checklist for Exhibition

What will discussion sound like in Grade 5?

• We will use English in our groups UNLESS we need to translate the meaning of a word or phrase that needs clarification or elaboration.
• Then we will remember to switch back to English once we have clarified or elaborated our ideas.
• In partners, we will use English.
• When we are thinking solo we can use either English or Korean/Chinese.
• In teams, we will use English for all conversation unless we are clarifying the meaning of something.
