Secondary - Talk for Writing
- Talk for Writing is an engaging teaching framework, based on the principles of formative assessment and interactive learning.
- It provides a flexible process for developing understanding and expression, moving from imitation to innovation to independent application.
In English, it provides a step-by-step approach to creating confident, creative speakers, thinkers, readers and writers.
In other subjects across the curriculum, it provides a flexible framework that enables all students to develop the tune of each subject area and co-construct understanding so that they can structure their ideas and express themselves coherently.
In the session we will explore the four underpinning principals:
- Providing a model
- Facilitating oral rehearsal
- Making the learning visible
- Co-construct the learning
- Facilitator
