form an opinion about characters, settings and events in texts, identifying areas of agreement and difference with others’ opinions and justifying a response

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a NAPLAN-year topic. Bloomi teaches it with a short explainer, guided practice, and NAPLAN-style questions — every one traceable to this exact code.

What this looks like in the classroom

• establishing forums and criteria for discussing the relative merits of characters, settings and events in literary texts
• comparing personal opinions on texts and justifying responses in discussions which may include referencing behaviours such as integrity and loyalty
