Talk for QWC Writing
orUsing oral rehearsal to structure written outcomesSlide2
High quality oral work is a high currency learning activity when getting our students to think about, organise and articulate their ideas. Often, our students have difficulty expressing themselves and are unaware of the different ways that one person can take part in any given discussion. Here is just one way to help students become more confident with their talk whilst also actively supporting ALL students to make at least one point during a discussion leading to a written outcome.Slide3
Talk for Writing should happen at three levels ....
Teacher talk:
the verbalisation of the thought
processes involved, as the teacher is demonstrating and modelling various stages or aspects of the
writing/problem solving
process.
Guiding children’s talk
:
structured and
scaffolded
opportunities for children to develop and practise all the different aspects of talk for writing
through
class and group conversations and activities.
Independent children’s talk:
opportunities for children to develop and practise talk for writing in pairs and small groups, independent of the teacher.
Slide4
To be productive,
Talk for Writing needs to be embedded in every phase of the teaching sequence
During reading:
when familiarising with the problem and its key features
Before writing:
when generating ideas, preparing for and planning writing.
During all stages of writing
:
when making choices involved in creating, developing and improving
solutions.
After writing:
when reflecting on and learning from a
writing/problem solving
experience.Slide5
