This week’s edition of HomeTalk from Dialogue Works is all about gifts. In the build-up to the festive season, it’s a free resource you can use to get your class thinking and talking. For example:
Why do people give gifts?
Is it possible to give too many gifts?
What’s the difference between something you want and something you need?
Every edition of HomeTalk is full of stimuli, talking points and activities tailored for age groups from three upwards. Download previous editions at https://dialogueworks.co.uk/hometalk, and sign up for each new edition direct to your inbox at https://bit.ly/hometalk-sign-up.
