What is “Let’s Talk about It!” and how should teachers use “Let’s Talk about It!” materials?
“Let’s Talk about It!” is an oral language program that has been purchased for ECE–grade 2 classrooms (ECE uses Level A; kindergarten, Level B; first grade, Level C, second grade, Level D). Teachers use “Let’s Talk about It!” materials in small group instruction during Reading Workshop with students who need additional support for oral language development in English or Spanish. Some students need this language development before they can benefit from guided reading; other students may need this support in addition to guided reading instruction.
