English - Year 4

Year 4 English: A Year of Media, Myths, Poetry and Performance! 

Embark on a full year of literacy exploration with our comprehensive Year 4 program. Meticulously designed to cover all mandatory content descriptors from the Australian Curriculum (Version 9.0), this complete package includes:

  • 4 engaging, term-long units
  • Over 180 detailed, hands-on lessons

In Year 4, English builds upon each student’s expanding language skills and experiences. Our approach is designed to ignite imagination and critical thinking through a vibrant mix of explicit instruction, collaborative exploration and creative, project-based learning.

We move beyond basic comprehension to help students analyse, create and perform with a clear purpose and audience in mind. This program transforms the classroom into a dynamic hub where students become:

  • Digital Detectives & News Hounds, critically analysing media, distinguishing fact from opinion and reporting stories accurately.
  • Myth Makers & Legend Weavers, exploring diverse cultural narratives and crafting their own imaginative tales.
  • Poets & Word Artists, playing with literary devices, exploring poetic forms and performing expressive verse.
  • Playwrights & Performers, collaborating to write scripts and bring dramatic stories to the stage.
