WHAT IS TALK FOR WRITING?Talk for Writing, developed by Pie Corbett and supported by Julia Strong, is powerful because it is based on the principles of how children learn.
Talk for Writing enables children to imitate the key language they need for a particular topic orally before they try reading and analysing it.
Through fun activities that help them rehearse the tune of the language they need, followed by shared writing to show them how to craft their writing, children are helped to write in the same style.

TIGERS
Tigers are huge, powerful animals that live only in Asia. Although most tigers live in warm places, they can find very hot weather uncomfortable. Tigers that live in cold areas of China have longer fur, for protection.
Tigers have striped fur that helps to camouflage them so they can stalk their prey. They are carnivores and thus possess sharp, front teeth in order to tear meat from bones. They have big appetites, eating up to 40kg of meat in one, huge meal.
Illegal hunting and cutting down forests for their wood, has reduced the number of tigers in the wild, to the point of extinction.

STAGE 3: INDEPENDENT APPLICATION
The children write their own text about an animal they have researched, paying particular attention to their targets. This is called the “Hot” piece.
The genre can be revisited, where possible, throughout the curriculum to embed the language and features.
