discuss plot, character and setting, which are features of stories

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a readiness-year topic that builds towards the next NAPLAN year. Bloomi practises it as curriculum mastery, never test drilling.

What this looks like in the classroom

• recognising similar characters and settings in different types of literary texts; for example, traditional tales, narrative poems and fables
• discussing whether features of settings including time (year, season) and place (country or city) are realistic or imagined
• discussing how plots develop, including beginnings (orientation), how the problem (complication) is introduced and solved (resolution)
