Literacy – Talk for Writing

We use the Talk for Writing approach to develop confident, imaginative writers. This fun and engaging method was created by author Pie Corbett and helps children build writing skills through storytelling, drama and structure.

Talk for Writing follows three main stages:

1. Imitation – Children learn texts through actions, story maps, and repetition.
2. Innovation – Children adapt the story or structure to make it their own.
3. Independent Application – Children create their own original writing.

Benefits for your child:

  • Builds confidence through oral storytelling
  • Expands vocabulary and language awareness
  • Makes writing more engaging and enjoyable
  • Develops memory, speaking, and writing skills
