Direct Instruction:

The learning intention for this lesson was we are learning about speech and how to record it in our stories.

The video shows children learning about speech and how speech is shared in written text. The children engage in shared reading in which we pull out the speech. After that we discuss the activity and the different levels of support children, listen, read, build and write the speech. The focus is on knowing where the speech marks go, who is talking and if it is a question or statement.
