Students learn to plan, create, rehearse and deliver spoken and multimodal presentations that include relevant, elaborated ideas, sequencing ideas and using complex sentences, specialist and technical vocabulary, pitch, tone, pace, volume, and visual and digital features. They move from recognising the feature to explaining how it works in context, then applying it deliberately in their own reading, speaking, writing or multimodal creation.
Core idea: In English, choices in language, structure, literature and mode create meaning for a particular audience and purpose. A strong answer names the choice, gives evidence and explains the effect.
Success looks like
- identify the relevant feature, strategy or text choice
- use precise English metalanguage
- support the answer with specific evidence
- explain the effect in context
- apply or revise the choice for a new audience and purpose
