Lesson Plan
Conversation Champions Lesson Plan
Students will learn and practice waiting for their conversational partner to finish speaking before responding, using a short video example, guided prompts, and timed turns to build respectful dialogue habits.
Turn-taking is foundational for respectful communication and social confidence. Reinforcing it with multimedia engages 3rd graders and models clear, patient dialogue.
