Class Talk Summary

Class Talk by Dr Rosemary Sage

The way into thinking skills. The book outlines the importance of talk both at home and in the classroom. It emphasises that talking is more than just communication, it is the way into thinking skills development. How do I know what I think until I've heard myself say it? Some children are never given the opportunity to develop their talking skills in order to structure their thinking. This book addresses this issue head on, with carefully analysed research and a whole host of practical classroom activities to help children into quality talking and deeper thinking.

Class Talk Reviews

'An interesting, enjoyable read, primarily aimed at teachers, though also providing useful pointers for therapists...some excellent ideas for group games. Good value for money.' Sally Gray, Speech and Language Therapy in Practice, Autumn 2006 -- Sally Gray
