Speaking Frames -- Year 5

by Sue Palmer, Palmer Sue

Teachers need no longer wait for an effective and innovative answer to the problem of how to teach speaking and listening. By orally 'filling in' a speaking frame, children will learn to listen to, imitate, make innovations in and invent language patterns. The books will also save teachers time with photocopiable sheets, help teaching in groups, pairs and one-on-one, and help guide teachers on assessment.
