identify how texts across the curriculum have different language features and are typically organised into characteristic stages depending on purposes

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

• identifying the typical stages and language features of texts such as narratives, factual recounts, imaginative recounts, biographies, information reports, explanations, book talks, poetry and arguments for a particular purpose
• understanding how and why text structure is important in texts such as sequential and causal explanations, and comparative and part-whole information reports
• recognising that poems have different purposes that influence the organisation into characteristic stages; for example, poems that tell stories, poems that describe and poems that reflect on aspects of life
