Developing talk:
Deeper questioning, all active participants
‘What does [name] think?’
‘Say it again, better.’
‘How can that be represented?’
Selective use of doubt or uncertainty
‘Give another example that shows…’
‘Six answers are correct…’
Limiting talk?
“By the age of three, more disadvantaged children are-on average-already almost a full year and a half behind their more affluent peers in their early language development.”
“Children who are behind in language development at age five are six times less likely to achieve the expected standard in English at age eleven, and eleven times less likely to achieve the expected level in maths.”
