SPEAK SMART INITIATIVES

How It Works

How SCALE Works

From support to independent communication

SCALE gives students repeated opportunities to move from guided practice towards more confident, independent communication.

1

MODEL

The trainer models the language and task.

2

PRACTISE

Students practise with guidance and feedback.

3

INTERACT

Students work in pairs or groups and respond.

4

COMMUNICATE

Students use the language more independently.

Practice → participation → confidence → fluency

Progress is observed through a simple cycle of baseline, practice, re-assessment and reporting.
