Item Anchor charts and speaking skills(Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias Humanas y de la Educación-Carrera de Pedagogía de los Idiomas Nacionales y extranjeros, 2023-07-01) López López, Amanda Lizbeth; Chicaiza Redin, Verónica ElizabethThe present investigation aims to examine the influence of anchor charts in speaking skills. The participants were a group of 36 students about 6 years old (21 boys and 15 girls) who participated in a quantitative, pre-experimental investigation. Data was collected through a Cambridge Pre-A1 (YLE Starters) speaking test. The exam had 10 information questions classified into four parts (understanding and following spoken instructions related to scene pictures and object cards, and personal questions). The results have shown that the use of anchor chart activities and color coded-designs followed by drills help students to learn vocabulary and be familiar with the English language. These results were analyzed by the use of SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) program version 26.0. The findings revealed that anchor charts and color coded design were more interesting and maintain students motivated. There were designs that were catchy to students at their early years. However, the use of colors and different materials during sessions contributed meaningfully to the spoken language.
