discuss the characters and settings of a range of texts and identify how language is used to present these features in different ways

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

• comparing how similar characters or settings are described in texts from different contexts; for example, how the seasons are described
• identifying and comparing verb groups used to convey actions, emotions and dialogue in a range of literary texts
• identifying the language used to describe the landscape in First Nations Australians’ stories
