Using Talk Effectively in the Primary Classroom
Drawing on their research into the quality, quantity and type of talk that happens in the everyday primary classroom, the authors offer insights into the most effective ways of using talk to improve teaching and learning. They consider broad classroom-based issues, such as: what is important about talk; what children know about talk; when they get to school; the voice of authority and the voice of the learner; whole class teaching for diversity; the experience of boys and girls, and children with special needs; using talk in the Literacy and Numeracy Hours; and, using talk in science and ICT.

Speaking and Listening Through Drama
Showing teachers how to use drama to promote speaking and listening for pupils, including those who find learning difficult, this book describes, analyses and teaches how to use role play effectively and looks at how to generate a productive dialogue between teachers and pupils that is both powerful and enabling. Francis Prendiville and Nigel Toye present innovative methods for teaching across the curriculum which are genuinely inclusive and can help to motivate reluctant learners. The 'how to' section of the book describes a range of strategies and approaches: how to begin with 'teacher in role'; how to begin planning drama; how to generate quality speaking and listening; how to use drama for inclusion and citizenship; how to generate empathy in drama; how to link history and drama; and, how to begin using assessment of speaking and listening (and other English skills) through drama.

Yakety Yak the Alien's Back
There is currently much discussion about a child's ability to talk when they start school and it is a well-known fact that children are better able to read and write if they have first grasped the fundamentals of spoken language. There are many forms of speaking and listening; such as giving directions; recounting and telling a story; comparing and grouping objects; describing something; voicing the imagination and learning when to talk and listen in a conversation. Often taken for granted, these skills form the basis of a child's learning and confidence in life.
