What students learn in AC9E10LY05
This unit helps students build a clear, usable understanding of Integrate comprehension strategies such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring.... The goal is not to memorise one answer pattern. Students should be able to explain the idea, recognise it in a new example and apply it in a short practice or worksheet task.
- Start with the main idea: integrate comprehension strategies such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring, questioning and inferring to analyse and interpret complex and abstract ideas.
- Use concrete examples, pictures, oral explanation and short written responses before moving to independent practice.
- monitoring the language features associated with right and wrong in a text and interpreting the representation of the abstract concept of justice interpreting how visual features represent abstract concepts in advertising, such as the representation of parenthood in advertisements
- Finish with mixed questions so students must choose the correct strategy rather than copy the last example.
