What students learn in AC9E7LE07
This unit helps students build a clear, usable understanding of And edit literary texts that experiment with language features and.... 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: create and edit literary texts that experiment with language features and literary devices encountered in texts.
- Use concrete examples, pictures, oral explanation and short written responses before moving to independent practice.
- using aspects of texts in imaginative recreations such as re-situating a character from a text into a new situation creating a prequel using an imagined series of life events of a character presented as a series of flashbacks in a scripted monologue
- Finish with mixed questions so students must choose the correct strategy rather than copy the last example.
