Talk4Writing is a teaching approach that helps children develop writing skills by imitating, innovating, and independently applying language structures. It uses oral storytelling, story maps, and actions to internalise language patterns before moving to writing.

 

Talk for Reading focuses on developing comprehension and critical thinking through structured discussion and exploration of texts.
