- They select and experiment with language features including literary devices, and experiment with multimodal features and features of voice.
- They read, view and comprehend a range of texts created to inform, influence and/or engage audiences.
- They analyse representations of people, places, events and concepts, and how texts respond to contexts.
- They select and experiment with text structures to organise, develop and link ideas.
- They select and experiment with text structures to organise and develop ideas.
