Picture Talks for Sentences


 

You cannot think what you cannot speak.
You cannot read what you cannot speak.
You cannot write what you cannot speak. 

Put quite simply:

You have to be able to speak it before you can write it and you have to be able to speak it with some familiarity and confidence, before you can write it! 

Pupils need plenty of opportunity to compose and  rehearse their sentences before writing it down.

Orally compose it; rehearse it; when internalized, write it!
