Description: Oral language skills are the foundations on which we build all other literacy skills such as reading, writing, spelling etc. This set of picture talks is designed to be a steppingstone for teachers to develop the skills of speaking and listening with their children. They can be used in the morning routine, as part of a theme or as springboards for lots of different activities. Following the prompts in these picture talks may help beginning teachers to develop skills in this important area. The written cards are for you to use, if you wish, to generate discussions.
