This bestselling resource has been fully updated, putting formative assessment at the heart of the Talk for Writing process and showing how to help children love writing across the curriculum. By helping children speak the language of non-fiction in a fun engaging way before they attempt to write, the Talk for Writing approach builds children's confidence and linguistic ability enabling them to craft their own writing. In the new edition, this practical resource offers: * Fully worked, tried and tested examples of how to apply Talk for Writing to each non-fiction text type * A wide range of fun activities helping children internalise how to express and link text effectively* A process that co-constructs learning so that children learn how to structure text and create toolkits of key ingredients* Guidance for teachers in England on how to apply the approach across the primary curriculum* An OLC including new footage of Pie Corbett demonstrating Talk for Writing and new footage of classes engaged in the approach * Advice on how to use the DVD and handouts to train all staff in the approach * Evidence of impact from cold to hot tasksDesigned for busy teachers, Talk for Writing across the Curriculum, second edition, will help transform children's writing and attainment across the curriculum. "This book celebrates the importance of talk in becoming and growing as a writer: talk to share ideas; talk to analyse text; talk to co-construct writing; and to talk to evaluate writing. Throughout the book constantly underlines the importance of talk for learning and the many creative and rich ways talk can be used to help young writers internalise the rhythms and patterns of text. Full of practical ideas and activities, the teaching combines being creative and being critical in a wholly integrated way. An invaluable resource for primary school teachers!"Debra Myhill, Professor of Education at the University of Exeter, UK"The teaching of reading has always taken priority in policy and practice in literacy. Pie Corbett and Julia Strong have produced a very welcome counterweight to that dominance in their Talk for Writing Across the Curriculum. It is so refreshing to see suggestions for teaching to bring elements of language together, especially when done in such an entertaining and engaging way as this. This new edition makes a 'classic' even better."David Wray, Emeritus Professor, University of Warwick, UK"This latest update of Pie and Julia's best-selling book reflects changes in the curriculum, strengthening the T4W approach, using cold and hot tasks, showing new worked examples of how to apply T4W to each non-fiction type and placing formative assessment at the heart of the process. It is exciting to see how all the best ideas and findings in education are converging, evidenced in this latest 'up to the minute' excellent publication."Shirley Clarke, Formative Assessment Expert

Saved a few bucks for top quality!
I’m not a visual artist by any stretch, but I also hate not having every option at my disposal, so I bought this item used on here. The best $70 bucks I’ve ever saved. It didn’t come in an Apple box but it came in an Amazon box that was the size of an Apple box and it was padded and secure. The quality was as new as it would be coming from the Apple Store. It’s a pretty good device. It works well. I enjoy using it to make slight adjustments in my attempts to draw things and I do enjoy writing with it. Great weight and the haptics are on point when you use the options like squeezing it to change tools. It fits nicely on the top of the iPad with the magnet. Battery life has yet to drop below 95 even when I had it off the pad for a few days. I’m very happy with my purchase and I love the fact that I saved a few bucks by purchasing used.

Excellent Apple Pencil but make sure it works with the iPad you currently own!
I love the new pencil! The haptics in it are great! I originally had the 2nd gen pencil and needed a new one so I bought this one. When I got it, it wouldn’t sync to my iPad Pro 11 (4th gen) though. Apparently I didn’t read completely that it wouldn’t. However, because of this, my husband bought me the new iPad Pro (M5 chip) and the pencil works great with it! It syncs easily with the iPad and is easy to use.

Like new! Great deal and works perfectly
Looks and works like brand new! The magnetic charging is solid, and the response time is flawless. The pressure sensitivity and barrel roll features are game-changers for drawing. It was well-packaged and arrived super fast. Getting a Pencil Pro at this price is a steal—saved a lot compared to buying new. Definitely a great find!

Apple Pencil Pro… definitely an upgrade from the original Pencil and Pencil 2!
Purchased as an open‑box, like‑new item, and it arrived exactly as described. The box was opened but taped closed and the wrapper was still on the pencil. It didn’t have any charge out of the box, but as soon as I snapped it onto the side of my iPad, it synced instantly and worked right away. I charged it fully that first night and have been using it normally ever since. I’m using it with my 13” iPad Air M2, and it’s great. The double‑tap on the barrel to bring up the menu is super convenient, and everything works flawlessly. Zero issues so far. For basically half the price of a brand‑new one, this feels like an excellent buy and absolutely worth what I paid. Apple hardware is built well, the white looks nice and clean… I have no worries about longevity at all. Excellent product from Apple as usual.

Super easy to set up and start drawing
I was honestly shocked at how easy it was to connect it to my iPad. Opened the box and was expecting to see more inside of it, decided to see what happens when I put it up to my iPad and it connected instantly. Works great with my iPad m2 with touch sensitivity and spiral twist stuff in procreate. Really happy to not have to plug it in to charge. I’m planning to use this daily, so I needed to make sure it would actually feel good to hold in my hand and oh baby let me tell you, it does. It’s really smooth drawing wise, using it is intuitive. Fits on the iPad snug. I’d say give it a shot
