The Works Key Stage 2

Poetry

Pie Corbett's tried and tested 'Talk for Writing' 'storymaking' approach has been used in many early years settings across the country as the key strategy for helping children to build up a bank of traditional tales, developing their imaginative and linguistic repertoires. Imitating the text enables children to internalise the language patterns of storytelling, then innovate on them and become confident inventors of their own stories.  'Talk for Writing' also helps build a love of reading and enables children to move from oral storytelling to beginning to write stories of their own. This book shows early years settings how to set up the approach and how to involve parents, carers and other family members through learning the same stories that the children are learning. This family involvement not only helps the children's linguistic development but also increases the confidence of family members in supporting their children. This practical resource offers:  9 stories and rhymes together with storymaps for nursery-age children, and another 9 for Foundation Stage children  Fully worked, tried and tested examples of how to establish the 'Talk for Writing' approach in early years settings, illustrated by four stories taking staff step by step through the imitation, innovation and invention stages  DVD of Pie Corbett workshops with teachers showing 'Talk for Writing' in action and demonstrating how to deliver training  2nd DVD with video footage of Nursery and Foundation stage children and parents involved in the approach, plus interviews with teachers and parents Downloadable versions of the stories together with amendable colour version of the story maps
