Talk4writing biography samples

Talk for Writing is a framework for teaching writing that is based on the premise that children must first internalise the language patterns and structures needed to write by ‘talking the text’ and close reading of quality examples.

Talk for Writing works best as a whole school approach.

Training to help schools implement the Talk for Writing approach is available from the Talk for Writing team. For the most effective results, they recommend a sequence of training and support that can be delivered in-school or online.

Tailored consultancy packages are also available.

For schools interested in finding out more about the Talk for Writing approach, there are introductory sessions available at in-person conferences around the country and online.

Online sessions include:

• Talk for Writing for EYFS and KS1
• Talk for Writing in KS2
• Talk for reading
• Talk for Writing in Science
• Writing Poetry Across the Primary School
• Talk for Writing at secondary level
