Providing children with opportunities to talk about their learning
enables teachers to hear what children are thinking. Talking with
one another allows children to question, elaborate, and reflect on
a range of ideas. Classroom talk can be motivating and involving,
and helps children to think and learn. And yet it is difficult to
organise such talk in a classroom. Children unaware of the
importance of talk for learning may think of talk as just chat and
learning falls away as they slip into social talk. This book
provides teachers with strategies and resources to enable whole
classes to work together through the medium of talk. Creating a
Speaking and Listening Classroom provides timely professional
development for teachers. Based on a theoretical approach
underpinned by classroom research, this book offers
classroom-tested strategies for engaging children in their own
learning. Such strategies involve the direct teaching of speaking
and listening. Activities in the book can ensure that children know
how and why to support one another s learning in whole-class and
group work. The approach enables teachers to ensure that
personalised learning programs are based on what children already
think and know. The suggested strategies for teaching speaking and
listening can enable children to use one another s minds as a rich
resource. This stimulating book will be of interest to
professionals in primary education, literacy co-ordinators, and
trainee primary teachers.
