SK Grade 5 English Topics
- Viewing and Representing: Students analyze visual and multimedia texts, identify persuasive techniques, recognize point of view, distinguish fact from opinion, and examine how First Nations and Metis art and other texts transmit culture and influence audiences.
- Listening: Students listen purposefully to a range of texts including First Nations and Metis oral traditions, identify main ideas and supporting details, differentiate fact from opinion, interpret verbal and non-verbal messages, and follow multi-step oral directions.
- Reading: Students determine key ideas and perspectives in a variety of texts including First Nations and Metis resources, use reading strategies before and during and after reading, understand text features like charts and diagrams, and identify characteristics of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction genres.
- Writing: Students write clear multi-paragraph compositions of at least 300 words, including narrative, expository, and persuasive forms, using note-making strategies, electronic tools, and inquiry processes to develop and organize ideas.
- Speaking: Students deliver focused oral presentations - narrative, informative, and those drawn from First Nations and Metis oral tradition - selecting organizational structure and supporting ideas with evidence while using verbal cues and gestures effectively.
- Self-Assessment and Goal Setting: Students reflect on their own strategies across all language arts areas, identify strengths, set goals, and develop plans for continued improvement in viewing, listening, reading, representing, speaking, and writing.
