Talk4Writing - Mythical Creatures
At Tom Price Primary School we are beginning a new adventure and teaching writing using the Talk4Writing program.
Talk for Writing enables children to imitate the key language they need for a particular topic orally before they try reading and analysing it. Through fun activities that help them rehearse the tune of the language they need, followed by shared writing to show them how to craft their writing, children are helped to write in the same style.
This slide share was our whole school hook and had students hunting for mythical creatures around the school during recess and lunchtimes for a number of days after our hook assembly was held with our enthusiastic Principal engaging our students into the topic of Mythical Creatures.

How to be a respectful classmate
How
to be a respectful classmate
To
be respectful you have to have honesty, kindness, helpful and be encouraging.
That is the reasons why you should be respectful all the time. You need to be
respectful to your family and your classmates.
To
help be a respectful classmate you could use THINK. What THINK means each of
the letters mean something? The T is for is it true the H is for is it helpful
the I is for is it inspiring. The N is for is it necessary and the K is for is
it kind that is what each letter stands for.
First
let’s talk about the two first letters of the of think which are t and h the t is for is it
true so is it a lie or is it something that is made up. The h is for is it
helpful so should you really say it and is it helping someone.
Secondly
let’s talk about the third and fourth letters of the word think. The I is for
inspiring is it going to make someone be inspired by your words. The n is for
is it necessary so should you really say it or not.
Thirdly
the last letter of the word think is k and lets talk about being respectful.
The k is it kind is it nice or mean and think before you speak. Remember to be
respectful to your class mates and yourself.
Remember
to use your think and other ones that you have learnt in school. I hope you
remember what I said and don’t forget.

How to be a Respectful Classmate
How to be a Respectful Classmate
If you want to learn how to be respectful use THINK. THINK is a great
process that helps people say the right thing when they can’t say anything at
all, so it’s special in some in some people’s hearts, and it also helps you
tell people there better than plain old great.
True
Helpful
Inspiring
Necessary
Kind
Being Kind is huge in the world, because barely anyone is (except for
friends) in the world and that is why it is a big thing so don’t forget, to be
kind you need to say hi/hello, smile at someone or cheer someone up.
Put ups can be nice to people in all different ways like, when someone
fails at something and says “oh, I can’t do this waaaaaaa” just tell them
they’re great at other things, and it can also be used to help people when
there falling behind.
Don’t forget that being, put ups, and THINK are all steps to being
respectful, but there are so much more, I can’t even count how much more there
is, so try to be respectful.
The last thing you need is to remember these 3 helpful things I mentioned
before, so really the only thing you need is going to have to be respect.
