Synopsis

Conversation between adults and and young children is a well-known stimulus to language development but conversation is seldom fully used in the classroom. The authors argue that it should be used more and present a range of research findings and classroom examples to justify their case. This book is intended for practising teachers and students who will find the practical strategies ready to use in their own classrooms.
