What Foundation English students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Foundation English standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They use language features including words and phrases from learning and texts.
- They share thoughts and preferences, retell events and report information or key ideas to an audience.
- They name the letters of the English alphabet and know and use the most common sounds (phonemes) represented by these letters (graphs).
- They listen for and identify rhymes, letter patterns and sounds (phonemes) in words.
- They retell, report information and state their thoughts, feelings and key ideas.
- They orally blend and segment phonemes in single-syllable words.
The Literature progression either side of AC9EFLE01
A class can only meet this descriptor if they were taught the one before it. If yours hasn't, that's where the lesson starts — not here.
