نوٹ: Since younger elementary school students are still learning social cues, verbal cues can be more effective than nonverbal ones. Older students may perceive verbal cues as childish, so be thoughtful about how you bring these into the room. Instead of using a verbal cue, you could focus on providing older students with a clear sense of how an activity benefits them, as well as its related consequences. You can also share the تاریخ of the call-and-response technique with older students, as it is a form of communication that can be traced back to African oral traditions.

Verbal Call-and-Response

A verbal call-and-response is when the Teaching Artist (TA) says something aloud to the class to which students collectively respond. The goal of a call-and-response could be to get everyone’s attention, refocus the group, cue students, or help them process information and build understanding. (Read more about call-and-response here.)

Pre-plan the call-and-response before your program begins. Since students will be repeating this phrase over the course of the program, find a way to connect it to your curriculum, to your or the students’ cultural background(s), and/or find ways for students to respond verbally and physically.
