Higher Secondary English

🌟 By the end of Year 10, students are English Trailblazers on a Storytelling Adventure!

🗣️ Speaking & Listening:
Students become idea adventurers and representation explorers, interacting, listening, and creating spoken or multimodal texts, including literary treasures. For different purposes and audiences, they discuss ideas and responses, make connections, and back everything up with solid evidence. They experiment with text structures like architects of thought and sprinkle in rhetorical and literary devices, multimodal magic, and voice flair to make their messages unforgettable.

📖 Reading & Viewing:
Students are text detectives and perspective hunters, navigating diverse texts crafted to inform, influence, and engage. They analyse and evaluate representations of people, places, events, and concepts, noticing how readers’ and viewers’ interpretations can shape meaning. They uncover the aesthetic sparkle of texts and explore how text structures, literary devices, intertextual connections, and multimodal features create depth, meaning, and wow-factor.

✍️ Writing & Creating:
Students craft written and multimodal texts, including literary works, for different purposes and audiences. They express ideas, explore representations, and make meaningful connections, always backing up their ideas with evidence. They experiment with text structures to organise, develop, and link their thoughts, while mixing up language features, literary devices, and multimodal tricks to create texts that captivate and inspire.

💡 In short: By the end of Year 10, students are master storytellers, idea alchemists, and representation detectives, using text structures, language wizardry, and multimodal magic to turn every text into a thrilling experience!
