identify and explain the ways that characters, settings and events combine to create meaning in narratives

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

• analysing and explaining the structure and features of short stories, discussing the purposes and appeal of different authorial choices for structure
• exploring traditional stories from Asia and discussing their features; for example, use of the oral mode, visual elements and verse to convey the narrative
