As suggested by the title, this booklet is about the teaching of speaking, listening and writing. It complements previous booklets on promoting pre-school language, reading and teaching additional languages. It has been prepared for inclusion in the Educational Practices Series developed by the International Academy of Education and distributed by the International Bureau of Education and the Academy. As part of its mission, the Academy provides timely syntheses of research on educational topics of international importance. This booklet is the fourteenth in the series on educational practices that generally improve learning. The first and second contributors to the planning and writing of this booklet are distinguished educators and scholars. Trudy Wallace taught secondary school English and graduate-level writing. She conducted research on eminent women writers, which she presented at Oxford University in the United Kingdom, the University of Cape Town in South Africa and in Caracas, Venezuela. She serves as editor on the International journal of educational development, and currently serves as Director of Gifted, Talented, and Enriched Academics for Chicago Public Schools.
