Use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising and questioning, and draw on learnt vocabulary and growing knowledge of context and text structures to build literal and inferred meanings <ul> <li>identifying information and details from spoken informative texts</li> <li>building topic knowledge and learning new vocabulary before and during reading</li> <li>making predictions from the cover, from illustrations and at points in the text before reading on, and confirming and adjusting understanding after reading</li> <li>drawing inferences and explaining inferences using clues from the text</li> <li>making connections with existing knowledge and personal experiences</li> </ul>
Use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring and questioning, and begin to analyse texts by drawing on a growing knowledge of context and text structures to build literal and inferred meanings <ul> <li>listening for specific information and providing key facts or points from an informative or persuasive text</li> <li>listening and responding to detailed instructions</li> <li>integrating information from print, images and prior knowledge to make supportable inferences</li> <li>identifying the main idea of a text • predicting vocabulary that is likely to be in a text, based on the topic and the purpose of the text; for example, predicting that ‘station’ and ‘arrive’ would be in a text recounting a train journey</li> <li>using prior knowledge to make and confirm predictions when reading a text</li> <li>using graphic organisers to represent the connections between characters, order of events or sequence of information</li> </ul>
Use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring and questioning, to analyse texts by drawing on a growing knowledge of context, text structures and language features to build literal and inferred meanings <ul> <li>making predictions about a text, drawing on knowledge of the topic, subject-specific vocabulary and experience of texts on the same topic</li> <li>identifying important ideas, events or details in texts</li> <li>learning new content from reading and listening, and asking questions to expand understanding</li> <li>comparing and contrasting how different texts present similar ideas or information</li> <li>drawing inferences, using evidence from the text and prior knowledge and experience; for example, making predictions about a character's likely actions or about the content of tabbed pages on a website</li> <li>determining the relevance of a text for a particular task</li> </ul>
Use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring and questioning, to expand topic knowledge and ideas, and begin to evaluate texts to build literal and inferred meanings <ul> <li>making connections between information in print, images and sound</li> <li>reading or listening for key topic-specific vocabulary words to build understanding</li> <li>reading or listening to interpret the main idea and supporting ideas</li> <li>identifying evidence and reasoning used by authors to support points or arguments</li> <li>applying self-monitoring strategies such as re-reading, pausing and questioning, and self-correction strategies such as confirming and cross-checking</li> <li>connecting the use of colours, images, symbols and patterns in texts by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander authors and illustrators</li> <li>evaluating an author’s use of evidence to support arguments</li> </ul>
