Summer Talk Pack

Get children talking, thinking and justifying their ideas with this bright, engaging collection of 'Build a…' and 'Make a…' summer-themed conversation prompts.

Each slide encourages children to make choices, explain their reasoning, compare ideas and use rich vocabulary, all through simple, familiar topics they love:

Make a Smoothie
Build a Sundae
Build an Ice Cream
Make a Fruit Kebab
Make a Pizza
Build a Sandcastle
Design a Kite
Build a Boat
Pack for the Beach

Each activity follows the same easy-to-use format, giving children a series of choices to discuss, such as flavours, colours, patterns, sizes and destinations. Perfect for partner talk, small groups, morning work or continuous provision.

Great for developing:
Speaking in full sentences
Justifying choices ("I chose... because...")
Vocabulary development
Listening and responding to others
Turn-taking
Comparing ideas
Predicting and problem solving

Simply display a slide and let the conversations begin. No preparation needed!
