Children talk a lot at our school. They sing, hum, tell stories and explain, argue and discuss all day long. Talking is encouraged. It leads to writing, reading and having a lot of fun together!
Here are a few examples of the natural tendency to communicate as it is nurtured at our school. You can see how we learn about each other and the world around us and how we begin to express what we know. The freedom to talk is important to us!
We especially enjoy talking about books we’ve read. We may choose based upon what our friends have liked. Then, when we find a book or an author that we like very much, we write a book report. The book report can help us record details we like and convince people we have never met, that this is a book worth reading.
Do you like talking in school, too? Do you have a favorite book or author you’d like to tell us about? Just comment.
