Reading Is Fun (comprehension text)
Duration of unit: 15 hours

15 Hours / 3 weeks
Unit outline
During these three weeks reading is not going to be only academic. It is mean to be a fun activity where children could have great opportunities to explore concepts of literacy and engage with a variety of texts for pleasure. They listen to, read, view and interpret spoken, written and multimodal texts in which the primary purpose is to entertain and at the same time understand how texts are designed to inform and persuade. This unit plan incorporate traditional texts including picture books, print and digital texts, multimodal texts, dramatic performances, and texts used by students as models for constructing their own work based in their experiences and backgrounds. This unit comprises Australian literature, including the oral narrative traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Informative texts present new content about topics of interest and topics being studied in other areas of the curriculum. These texts use complex language features, including varied sentence structures, some unfamiliar vocabulary, a significant number of high-frequency sight words and words that need to be decoded phonically, and a range of punctuation conventions, as well as illustrations and diagrams that both support and extend the printed text. On the other hand communication with parents are vital in the childrens process of reading, writing and speaking for that reason they are invited to attend an information meeting where the school give to parents a detailed approach to teaching reading and writing. Parents are also informed on how to best support and engage their children in this reading process. The main focus for this unit is to develop the necessaries skills and metacognitive process which permit communication at different context and levels using standard English. However Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives will be introduced as part of a multicultural integration. Children record their learning experiences using different comprehension strategies (super six). Children records will be saved in a portfolio which is available for children and parents any time.

Unit outline
At the end of the unit children develop an understanding of: How language and images are used to inform others How texts connect to students own experiences How texts are different to suit audience and purpose
Inquiry questions for the unit: Why read is important? What is a comprehension strategy? Which strategies can we use in order to comprehend a book? How connections can activate prior knowledge? What senses can be active when we read? How does an author organise information? (words, pictures) What are the features and organisation in a book? What language and images/visuals are used in books?

Achievement standard Receptive modes (listening, reading and viewing) By the end of Year 3, students understand how content can be organised using different text structures depending on the purpose of the text. They understand how language features, images and vocabulary choices are used for different effects. They read texts that contain varied sentence structures, a range of punctuation conventions, and images that provide additional information. They identify literal and implied meaning connecting ideas in different parts of a text. They select information, ideas and events in texts that relate to their own lives and to other texts. They listen to others views and respond appropriately. Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating ) Students understand how language features are used to link and sequence ideas. They understand how language can be used to express feelings and opinions on topics. Their texts include writing and images to express and develop in some detail experiences, events, information, ideas and characters. Students create a range of texts for familiar and unfamiliar audiences. They contribute actively to class and group discussions, asking questions, providing useful feedback and making presentations. They demonstrate understanding of grammar and choose vocabulary and punctuation appropriate to the purpose and context of their writing. They use knowledge of sounds and high frequency words to spell words accurately, checking their work for meaning. They write using joined letters that are accurately formed and consistent in size. Relevant prior curriculum Receptive modes (listening, reading and viewing) By the end of Year 2, students understand how similar texts share characteristics by identifying text structures and language features used to describe characters, settings and events. They read texts that contain varied sentence structures, some unfamiliar vocabulary, a significant number of high frequency sight words and images that provide additional information. They monitor meaning and self-correct using context, prior knowledge, punctuation, language and phonic knowledge. They identify literal and implied meaning, main ideas and supporting detail. Students make connections between texts by comparing content. They listen for particular purposes. They listen for and manipulate sound combinations and rhythmic sound patterns. Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating) When discussing their ideas and experiences, students use everyday language features and topic-specific vocabulary. They explain their preferences for aspects of texts using other texts as comparisons. They create texts that show how images support the meaning of the text. Curriculum working towards Receptive modes (listening, reading and viewing) By the end of Year 4, students understand that texts have different text structures depending on purpose and audience. They explain how language features, images and vocabulary are used to engage the interest of audiences. They describe literal and implied meaning connecting ideas in different texts. They express preferences for particular texts, and respond to others viewpoints. They listen for key points in discussions. Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating) Students use language features to create coherence and add detail to their texts. They understand how to express an opinion based on information in a text. They create texts that show understanding of how images and detail can be used to extend key ideas. Students create structured texts to explain ideas for different audiences. They make presentations and contribute actively to class and group discussions, varying language according to context.

Identify curriculum
Students create texts, drawing on their own experiences, their imagination and information they have learned. They use a variety of strategies to engage in group and class discussions and make presentations. They accurately spell familiar words and attempt to spell less familiar words and use punctuation accurately. Bridging content Focused teaching: Read aloud to engage lessons and scaffold instruction in comprehension strategy. Used reading aloud to stimulate reading to promote childrens reading comprehension strategies. Use guided reading to identify the text structure and language elements in different texts. Have students orally talk about events from their life making connection. List and discuss difficult vocabulary in the books using a word wall. Identify the who, what, where and why of the books being read and put on word walls. Engage the students in sharing a shared class experience with parents. Construct knowledge about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander life. Discuss the range of ways that we might recount and share our experiences with others. Discuss: Why would we share our experiences? Who might be interested in hearing about this? How might we share? What would the sharing look like? Support students to use comprehension strategies. Discuss the events, referring to records collected. Support students to record events on a graphic organiser. Discuss with students that even though there has been a shared class experience, everyone will remember it differently and have different thoughts about it.
Links to other learning areas The use of comprehension strategies (connecting, predicting, questioning, monitoring, summarising and evaluating) can help students to improve reading skills, processes and knowledge of text structures and organisation developed in English will be explored across a range of key learning areas (KLA). Drama and dancing are integration of thought, action and emotion as part of expressing inner feelings, experiences and cultural identity as well.
Assessment
Describe the assessment The assessment and evaluation for this unit will be a constant process, before, during and after the teaching program. In this unit Children are given opportunities to demonstrate their understanding, knowledge and skills through diagnostic, formative and summative assessment and a continuous feedback. The assessment is collected and attached in to childrens portfolios and allows for ongoing feedback to children on their learning. During the diagnostic assessment: Assess the individual and class learning needs of children through observe physical , social, emotional and cultural differences; getting samples of reading, writing, listening, speaking. Also check records, previous teachers comments, home environment and relation with parents. Observe the child for a particular time in a particular activity, record behaviours in regular intervals during the lesson by keeping a record. Establish language portfolios for each child keeping examples of work Survey childrens reading and writing attitudes, and interest outside the school Carry out a parent survey to gain information on the home language environment and parent expectations. During formative assessment: Assess the children progress through observe, sample, check, test, monitor and record. Focuses on monitoring to improve student learning (practicing an assessment technique). Week 2 Formative Assessment Observe, Check, Test, Monitor and Record (graphic organisers) Week 3 Summative assessment Portfolios and selfassessment. Week 1 Diagnostic assessment Childrens background. Assessment date
Make judgments
When making judgments about the evidence in student work, teachers are advised to use task-specific standards. Task-specific standards give teachers: A tool for directly matching the evidence of learning in the student response to the standards A focal point for discussing student responses A tool to help provide feedback to students.
Task-specific standards are a guide that: Highlights the valued features that are being targeted in the assessment and the qualities that will inform the overall judgment Specifies particular targeted aspects of the curriculum content and achievement standard the alignment between the valued feature, the task-specific descriptor and the assessment must be obvious and strong Clarifies the curriculum expectations for learning at each of the five grades (AE) and shows the connections between what students are expected to know and do, and how their responses will be judged Allows teachers to make consistent and comparable on-balance
During the summative assessment: Assess children achievements The assessments are organized in childrens portfolios and allow for constant feedback to children on their learning process. Indicates standards achieved at particular points for reporting purposes.
Assessment
Assessment for learning: Enables teachers to use information about student progress to inform their teaching, e.g. using feedback from a previous unit to inform learning in the current unit Assessment as learning: Enables students to reflect on and monitor their own progress to inform their future learning goals, e.g. opportunities to reflect on an inquiry process Assessment of learning:Teacher give children feedback all the time seeking and interpreting evidence for use by students to decide where the students are in their learning, where they need to go and how best to get there. Feedback gathered throughout the teaching and learning cycle informs future teaching, learning and assessment. Feedback Use different approaches to give children feedback Behaviorist: Reinforce positive and negative aspects You did a great job with your proof reading Socialist: Observe consequences If you continue to write in this way your results will improve Cognitive: Check if knowledge is received, check for schema revisions In this report you need to be sure to make clear links to support your facts and opinions Constructivist: Check what knowledge is constructed. In your recent narrative you were successful in engaging Collaborative: Compare notes with other learners We both agree the only area that may need adjusting is Give children feedback any time during every lesson.
Make judgments
judgments about student work by matching the qualities of student responses with the descriptors Supports evidence-based discussions to help students gain a better understanding of how they can critique their own responses and achievements, and identify the qualities needed to improve Increases the likelihood of students communicating confidently about their achievement with teachers and parents, and asking relevant questions about their own progress Encourages and provides the basis for conversations among teachers, students and parents about the quality of student work and curriculum expectations and related standards.

Define and explain comprehension strategies: Connect: Tell children that connections can be made from their own background experiences and knowledge. Predicting: Predicting is a sophisticated guess by using words like Maybe Will happen because, Next I think because Inferring: Looking for meaning that is not explicit in the text. It is looking for clues to figure out what is going out in the text. Questioning: Questioning is a strategy that can be used before, during and after the reading and usually involves WH questions who, what, when, where, why, how and what if. Monitoring: Tell the students that as they are reading we need to keep track of our understanding and fix any problems we encounter along the way (words in the text) Summarise: Is selecting important events or details and ordering them in a logical sequence. Evaluating: Is the action to judge the text, the authors craft, the actions of the characters, and ideas in the reading.

Use feedback
Ways to monitor learning and assessment Teachers meet to collaboratively plan the teaching, learning and assessment to meet the needs of all learners in each unit. Teachers create opportunities for discussion about levels of achievement to develop shared understandings; co-mark or cross mark at key points to ensure consistency of judgments; and participate in moderating samples of student work at school or cluster level to reach consensus and consistency. Reading fluency is supported through monitoring vocabulary and its meanings across different contexts. Readers and viewers use a number of active comprehension strategies to interpret texts, including activating prior knowledge, predicting, and questioning, identifying main ideas, inferring, monitoring, summarising and reflecting. Assessment is used for a variety of purposes, but its most important use is in supporting student learning. Sufficient and suitable evidence is collected to enable fair judgments to be made about student learning. Once the evidence is collected and analysed, it is summarised and presented in ways that are meaningful and useful to: Help students achieve the highest standards they can Promote, assist and improve teaching and learning Build a shared understanding of the qualities of student work and communicate meaningful information about students' progress and achievements to students, teachers, parents and the system. Feedback to students Teachers strategically plan opportunities and ways to provide ongoing feedback (both written and informal) and encouragement to children/students on their strengths and areas for improvement. Children/Students reflect on and discuss with their teachers or peers what they can do well and what they need to improve. Teachers reflect on and review learning opportunities to incorporate specific learning experiences and provide multiple opportunities for children to experience practise and improve. Observation: During collaborative group work and individual work, the teacher will have time to move between groups and individuals to observe and listen to students. This will allow the teacher to gain insights into how well students are progressing through the unit and to make suitable changes to the lesson sequence if needed. Regular workbook marking/correction: At the completion of each theoretical lesson students will be given a piece of homework which directly reflects/extends on work completed in class time. This work will be marked and corrected on a weekly basis to check for student understanding. Self-evaluation/reflection: Students will be encouraged throughout the unit and on the units completion to engage in persona l selfreflection. This evaluation/reflection will be essential in bringing about change in students attitudes towards their e ating habits.
32
Reflection on the unit plan
Evaluate the teaching program: Is the unit plan providing opportunities for the development of skills, knowledge and attitudes about language across curricula? Are the teaching/learning activities and unit resources suitable for the needs of the class? What additional activities need to be planned? Are children engaged in self-assessment by maintaining a record of their progress in reading and writing conventions? Identify what worked well during and at the end of the unit, including: Activities that worked well and why? Assessment that worked well and why Assessment that could be improved and how Common student misconceptions that need, or needed, to be clarified.
