Year 3, 4, 5 & 6 Literacy & Learning Resources
Students in the middle and upper primary have entered the curriculum phase of their education. Developed oral language skills are critical for gaining academic understanding of content and information. Adult-like language enables students to efficiently organise and elaborate upon their thoughts. This ability then provides the springboard into writing. Oral reading becomes less important, given the focus on the comprehension of the material read. During these years a child’s language and literacy skills form the foundations for academic achievement and learning progress.
