recognise different types of literary texts and identify features including events, characters, and beginnings and endings

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 that stories often have similar beginnings; for example, “Once upon a time”, “A long, long time ago” in fairytales or introducing the character: “A girl called Amira …”
• exploring literature by First Nations Australian authors and their cultural patterns of storytelling
• identifying how stories are told in poetry
