Talk! Chatterbox about digital everyday lives

Print out the sheets with the chatterbox, one for each pupil or each pair. Cut off the redundant pieces of paper, or bring scissors and let the pupils do it themselves. The chatterbox works great as a lead-in in class.

Introduce the topic and learning objective for the lesson.

The pupils are able to

• discuss and reflect on their own digital everyday lives

The pupils use their chatterboxes in pairs or small groups. Encourage all the pupils to explain and elaborate their answers. Below you can see all the questions or statements in the chatterbox.

The questions aim to create interesting conversations and make the pupils reflect on their own media usage. There are no correct or incorrect answers.

After the pupils have used the chatterboxes, place them in groups of four. Everyone in the group takes turns answering these questions:

• Which of these questions did you like the best, and why?
• Did anyone in your group offer different perspectives from yours?
