English Unit: B Year - K-2- Narrative
This workbook is designed to support multi-age classrooms (Kindergarten, Year 1, and Year 2) in exploring narrative structure, language features, and storytelling techniques through the NSW English Year B units. Each section includes five high-quality, differentiated worksheets per book, ensuring students are appropriately challenged at their level and aligned with Australian Curriculum V9.
Learning goals
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies, such as retelling, making inferences and finding key words to make meaning from multimodal texts.
- We are learning to write known lower case and upper case letters using learned letter formations, correct posture and pencil grip.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts.
- We are learning to form all upper and lower-case letters correctly.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts and begin to analyse texts by drawing on our knowledge.
- We are learning to write upper and lower-case unjoined letters and sentences legibly using correct pencil grip and posture.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising and questioning to make meaning.
- We are learning to write known lower case and upper case letters using learned letter formations, functional posture and pencil grip.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts.
- We are learning to write words using unjoined lower case and upper case letters using functional pencil grip.
