Talk to Text
‘It is through language, especially spoken language,
that teachers teach and children learn’.
(Alexander 2004, p2)

The teacher’s role
“The aim is not to impart knowledge about language but to develop each child’s individual writing voice.
Having something to say – and knowing that whatever it is will be valued by the reader is the first
step to effective communication in writing.”
Mary Hilton (2001)

Writing as a tool for thinking?
Writing as art?
Writing communication?

Writing as design?
Writing as personal response?
Writing as…..?

An unresolved dilemma?• Composition (author)
• Getting ideas, selecting words, grammar
• Transcription (secretary)• Physical effort of writing, spelling,
capitalisation, punctuation, paragraphs, legibility
Smith (1982)

Talk to Text

• Presentational talk to support text generation and linguistic choices. (Write Alouds)
• Reflective talk to develop metacognitive knowledge and communicative awareness. (Reflection)
• The challenge: time versus pace

‘The reader in the writer’
“Reading aloud seemed to be a particularly helpful way of foregrounding the tunes and rhythms of a text in a way that subsequently influenced writing.”
“It seems unlikely that there can be any fundamental writing development without reading development and vice versa. Progress in one is intimately related to and dependent on progress in the other.”
Barrs & Cork (2001)
![Page 14: Reading into writing](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082411/5681455b550346895db22a60/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Reading supports writing
“Just as exposure to print is essential for reading, so it is for writing. Children who have a wide experience of story form find it easier to reproduce coherent narratives.” (p.61)
Flynn & Stainthorp (2006)

What do you need to know?
• That writing is made up of compositional and transcriptional elements
• That the two elements need to be understood and approached in different ways
• That you need to consider the kinds of writing activities you plan for
• That there is a language needed about writing
