Purchase options and add-ons

Shana Frazin and Katy Wischow passionately believe in the need to help students develop strong talk skills across the school day, in every subject, to prepare them for their academic lives and lives as active citizens outside of school.  Using a unique “cycle” for talk that’s similar to the writing process (generating, choosing, developing, acting, and reflecting),  they name the predictable things we do most times we engage in a conversation, and show us how we can teach into those parts. 

Shana and Katy provide practical strategies for teaching four important purposes for talk that exist both in the classroom and in the real world:
• talking to build relationships
• talking to play with ideas
• talking to clarify, analyze, and argue
• talking to report.
They offer a clear description of each purpose, the “when and how” to teach into those purposes, and what to do when things go awry.  Classroom video brings the content to life showing what the talk looks and sounds like in action.

About the Author

Shana Frazin is a former classroom teacher and currently Co-Director of the TCRWP Classroom Libraries Project and Senior Staff Developer at the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project. She has led leadership groups on strong readers and higher level comprehension as well as taught institutes on the teaching of reading, writing, and content area. Prior to joining the Project, Shana taught third, fourth, and fifth grades in Pasadena and Los Angeles Unified School districts, and was a faculty member at Pacific Oaks College.

Shana is co-author of Once Upon a Time: Adapting and Writing Fairy Tales; Up-the-Ladder: Information Writing; and Unlocking the Power of Classroom Talk.



Katy Wischow is a staff developer for the Reading & Writing Project at Mossflower. More than a decade ago, Katy found her own way to her very first summer institute, coming as a “lone wolf.” Midweek, she told her principal, “I’m going to need some money” because she decided she absolutely had to have the Units of Study curriculum. Soon she’d transformed her Newark, New Jersey, middle school classroom into a flourishing writing workshop; her students’ passionate response led Katy to enroll in the Literacy Specialist program at Teachers College.

Katy has co-authored the book Unlocking the Power of Classroom Talk, co-written several Units of Study, and has authored the Ida series in the Jump Rope Readers. She is deeply interested in grammar, writing professionally, supporting teachers’ writing lives, and building strong learning cultures in schools and classrooms.

    This thoughtful book is chock-full of field-tested practical tools to strengthen students' speaking and listening skills.

    Very interesting read!

    Incredible!
  • Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2019
    Shana and Katy are masterful teachers and this book gives you all the details for instruction that include \the WHY, WHAT, and HOW for the four important purposes for talk in the classroom and the world:
    - talking to build relationships - Social / Emotional Learning
    - talking to play with ideas - Creating, Envisioning, and Imagining as well as Drafting (precursor to any writing)
    - talking to clarify, analyze, and argue - Argument - Writing Standard #1
    - talking to report. - Writing Standard #2
    The connections are vast. Talk can serve as the formative assessment for so much classroom and real life learning. As the quick jottings above suggest, there are multiple other curricular standards that go beyond the expected speaking and listening standards that drive the power behind TALK as a strategy that doubles and triples every TALK minute!

    From the first pages of Unlocking the Power of Classroom Talk by Shana Frazin and Katy Wischow, I was compelled to read until I reached the last page. Shana and Katy clearly help us to understand how to bring talk to life in our own learning spaces through modeling, supporting and extending talk with collective impact. With step-by-step descriptions and thoughtful explanations and examples, I can envision children joyfully engaging in collaborative conversations that will excite, entice and invite them to assume center stage in the learning process. I wholeheartedly endorse this amazing book!
