Head of Pathway: Ms L. Neveling.
The students will have access to a range of information through MULTIPLE MODES of listening, speaking, reading and writing. There will be a range of texts used for teaching and learning the language for all three strands: oral, written and visual languages. Both social and academic English will be included in the programme.
Visual language is often a very important part of text, so like oral and written language, it will need to be taught explicitly for this group. The content will always include basic general concepts and that are linked as closely as possible to curriculum areas.
Students will always be supported in different contexts where the known and unknown are being bridged.
Junior Trimester 2 Line 1 Literacy
The standards offered are correct at the time of writing. These are subject to change depending on student selections.
We endeavour to run all courses but are subject to minimise class sizes. Maximum class sizes apply. Once a course is full alternative selections are needed.
Course context or content may change by the start of the year.
Once a student makes their selections and confirms these, any changes must be accompanied by a letter of support from Whanau and are subject to available spaces in courses.
All Junior Bilingual students must select the literacy and numeracy modules in the language of their pathway each trimester and one other integrated language module (3 out of 4 of their modules must be bilingual).
All senior Bilingual students must take all modules available in the language of their pathway.
