Yes, that's it.
This is a good site as well
I'm just starting to find out about it, and wondered if anyone on here had any personal experience of it.

It seems to be the sort of thing that people tend to get 'heavily into' Popsy. Our Head is a big fan, as is an EP we know. All the teachers and TAs at our school have had training. I just wondered whether anyone had encountered it and not been bowled over.

I went on a course once to but to be honest it all seemed pretty much what you'd do when talking to your children anyway.. It was all about asking open questions when reading together and things like that.
