In this episode of the Equipping ELLs podcast, host Beth Vaucher dives into one of the most transformative and practical frameworks for supporting English Language Learners (ELLs): Talk for Writing. Beth introduces listeners to this British-based strategy that builds students' confidence in all four language domains - listening, speaking, reading, and writing - by starting with what students do best: talk.Beth shares how her own children's bilingual school introduced her to Talk for Writing and how it has fundamentally shifted her approach to language instruction. The method begins with oral storytelling, giving students the chance to internalize sentence structures and vocabulary in a fun, low-stakes environment. She walks us through how students can retell stories, use story maps, engage in shared writing, and eventually transition to independent writing, all while being supported through rich visuals, sentence frames, and vocabulary prompts.This episode is packed with classroom-ready tips, including how to choose a rich, authentic text, like Goldilocks and the Three Bears or The King Who Was Afraid of the Dark, and how to use those stories to anchor a 4–6 week language unit. Beth emphasizes the power of modeling, repetition, and visuals, and how even reluctant writers can thrive under this framework. She also shares personal anecdotes of her daughters' experiences, including how her second grader confidently wrote her own version of a class story.Teachers will learn how to scaffold language practice, how to provide peer and teacher modeling, and how to build in interactive opportunities for collaboration and creativity. Beth also offers suggestions on how to incorporate native language support and how to involve parents through performance and presentation.Whether you're brand new to Talk for Writing or looking to deepen your instructional strategies, this episode offers both inspiration and practical steps for implementation. Tune in to discover how this framework fosters confidence, creativity, and language mastery among ELL students - and why it might be the missing link in your teaching toolkit.Links and Resources:More Information on Talk for Writing⁠⁠⁠Join the Equipping ELLs Membership Shop our TpT Store
