-Concept Development-
(Y3) Understand how different types of texts vary in use of language choices, depending on their purpose and context (for example, tense and types of sentences) (ACELA1478)
(Y3) Identify the point of view in a text and suggest alternative points of view (ACELY1675)
(Y3) Discuss how language is used to describe the settings in texts, and explore how the settings shape the events and influence the mood of the narrative (ACELT1599)
(Y3) Plan, draft and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive texts demonstrating increasing control over text structures and language features and selecting print, and multimodal elements appropriate to the audience and purpose (ACELY1682)
(Y3) Reread and edit texts for meaning, appropriate structure, grammatical choices and punctuation (ACELY1683)
(Y3) Understand that verbs represent different processes, for example doing, thinking, saying, and relating and that these processes are anchored in time through tense (ACELA1482)
(Y3) Read an increasing range of different types of texts by combining contextual, semantic, grammatical and phonic knowledge, using text processing strategies, for example monitoring, predicting, confirming, rereading, reading on and self-correcting (ACELY1679)
(Y3) Know that word contractions are a feature of informal language and that apostrophes of contraction are used to signal missing letters (ACELA1480)
(Y3) Use software including word processing programs with growing speed and efficiency to construct and edit texts featuring visual, print and audio elements (ACELY1685)
