Describe how different types of texts across the curriculum have different language features and structures depending on purposes <ul> <li>identifying the stages of a basic argument such as introduction, argument 1, argument 2 and conclusion</li> <li>describing the typical text structure and language features of factual recounts, autobiographies, information reports, narratives, personal responses to literary texts (with reasons), sequential explanations, verse poetry and simple arguments, and describing their purposes</li> </ul>
Identify and discuss some literary devices, including rhythm and onomatopoeia in poetry and prose, and discuss the ways that they shape the reader’s reaction <ul> <li>discussing the effects of imagery in texts, for example the use of imagery related to nature in haiku poems</li> <li>generating questions to discuss effects, for example ‘Why does the poet use onomatopoeia in this line of the poem?’</li> </ul>
Create texts, using or adapting language features, characters, settings, plot structures and ideas from literary texts they have encountered <ul> <li>drawing on literary texts read, viewed and listened to for inspiration and ideas to create texts</li> <li>adapting texts read, viewed and listened to by changing the setting or revising an ending</li> <li>discussing characters encountered in literary texts and sharing ideas about how those characters may be a model for students’ own writing</li> </ul>
Read different types of texts using phonic, semantic and grammatical knowledge to read accurately and fluently for meaning, re-reading and self-correcting when required <ul> <li>using phonic knowledge, word knowledge, vocabulary and grammatical knowledge to read unknown words</li> <li>reading a wider range of texts from different learning areas, including chapter books and informative texts</li> </ul>
Identify the purpose and audience of different types of texts through the use of language features and/or images in the texts <ul> <li>identifying words, phrases and images intended to persuade listeners, viewers or readers</li> <li>identifying features of advertisements that target children</li> <li>identifying the purpose of a narrative text; for example, identifying the purpose of a fable</li> </ul>
Describe how different types of texts across the curriculum have different language features and are typically organised into characteristic stages depending on purposes <ul> <li>identifying the typical stages and language features of texts such as narratives, factual recounts, imaginative recounts, biographies, information reports, explanations, book talks, poetry and arguments for a particular purpose</li> <li>understanding how and why text structure is important in texts such as sequential and causal explanations, and comparative and part-whole information reports</li> <li>recognising that poems have different purposes that influence the organisation of the text into characteristic stages, for example poems that tell stories, poems that describe and poems that reflect on aspects of life</li> <li>recognising the difference between a text’s form (such as a poster, email or list) and its organisation into stages, depending on its social purpose</li> </ul>
Read different types of texts, integrating phonic, semantic and grammatical knowledge to read accurately and fluently for meaning, re-reading and self-correcting when needed <ul> <li>reading increasingly complex texts using established word identification strategies, knowledge of the topic and understanding of text structure and language features</li> </ul>
Identify the characteristic features used in different types of texts to meet the purpose and audience of the text <ul> <li>identifying how authors use language to create imaginary worlds</li> <li>identifying how authors use techniques, such as headings, italics and bold text, to support readers or viewers to navigate specific texts</li> <li>identifying visual features such as images and layout used in informative texts to complement, add to or shape understanding of a topic</li> </ul>
