Learning goalsSay it simply

1. Outcome Overview & Core Concepts

Students learn to recognise how texts can be created for similar purposes but different audiences. They identify the relevant language or text feature, point to evidence and explain how it contributes to meaning or purpose. Key concepts include audience, purpose.

Learning target: recognise how texts can be created for similar purposes but different audiences

2. Subject-Specific Content & Key Examples

Curriculum example 1

Use this context directly: identifying the ways in which a safety campaign varies depending on its audience; for example, comparing how a road safety campaign for adults driving is different to a road safety campaign for children crossing the road. Ask students to identify the relevant English feature, point to evidence and explain what it contributes to meaning or communication.

Curriculum example 2

Use this context directly: identifying how the instructions for assembling and using toys vary according to the age of the user. Ask students to identify the relevant English feature, point to evidence and explain what it contributes to meaning or communication.

Make the concept visible

Use a short example of recognise how texts can be created for similar purposes but different audiences and require students to identify the exact evidence before explaining it.

Transfer

Change the text, audience or context and ask students to apply recognise how texts can be created for similar purposes but different audiences independently.

Practice Thought & Formative Assessment

Use a fresh example that has not been modelled. Ask the student to show the exact clue, feature or language choice and explain or use it independently.

Practice and reviewReady for practice

3. Common Student Misconceptions

  • Feature spotting: Explain how the exact feature shapes meaning, communication or response.
  • Retelling: Select precise evidence and analyse it rather than repeating content.
  • Automatic effect: Interpret choices through audience, purpose, context and surrounding text.
  • Vague explanation: Replace “this makes it better” with the exact feature, evidence and likely effect.
