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

• making predictions about a text, drawing on knowledge of the topic, subject-specific vocabulary and experience of texts on the same topic
• identifying important ideas, events or details in texts
• learning new content from reading and listening, and asking questions to expand understanding
• comparing and contrasting how different texts present similar ideas or information
• 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
• determining the relevance of a text for a particular task
