NARRATIVESOCIAL PURPOSENarratives construct a pattern of events with aproblematic and/or unexpected outcome that entertainsand instructs the reader or listener. Narratives entertainbecause they deal with the unusual and unexpecteddevelopment of events. They instruct because theyteach readers and listeners that problems should beconfronted, and attempts made to resolve them.Narratives incorporate patterns of behaviour that aregenerally highly valued.STRUCTURENarratives are usually organised to include: Orientation — this stage ‘alerts’ the listener and/orreader to what is to follow, usually by introducing themain character/s in a setting of time and place. Complication — in this stage a sequence of events,which may begin in a usual pattern, is disrupted orchanged in some way so that the pattern of eventsbecomes a problem for one or more of the characters,eg a visit to a deserted house becomes a seriousproblem for the narrator when he finds himself locked ina house where there is no handle to the door. Theevents are evaluated by the character/s, thus making itclear to the reader/listener that a crisis has developed,eg ‘I was terrified when the door slammed shut. Howwas I going to get out? There was no handle on theinside and nobody knew where I was. My heart wasracing and I felt sick with fear as I banged on the door’. Resolution — the problem or the complication isresolved or attempted to be resolved in the resolution. Apattern of normalcy is restored to the events, but themain character/s has changed as a consequence of theexperience. Coda — this stage is optional. It makes explicit howthe character/s has changed and what has beenlearned from the experience.Kate Moi & Bronwyn Owen Marie Bashir Public SchoolGRAMMARCommon grammatical features of narrative textsinclude: use of particular nouns to refer to or describe theparticular people, animals and things that the story isabout; use of adjectives to build noun groups to describe thepeople, animals or things in the story; use of time connectives and conjunctions to sequenceevents through time; use of adverbs and adverbial phrases to locate theparticular incidents or events; use of past tense action verbs to indicate the actionsin a narrative; use of saying and thinking verbs to indicate whatcharacters are feeling, thinking or saying

PROCEDURESOCIAL PURPOSEProcedures tell how to do something. This might includeinstructions on how to carry out a task or play a game,more complicated procedures involving several phases,directions for getting to a place, and rules of behaviour.STRUCTUREGRAMMARProcedures are usually organised to include:Common grammatical patterns of a procedure include: the goal of the activity; any materials needed in achieving the goal; steps needed to accomplish the goal. the use of commands (imperative form of the verb), eg‘put’, ‘don’t mix’; the use of action verbs, eg ‘turn’, ‘pick up’, ‘don’t run’; the use of precise vocabulary, eg ‘whisk’, ‘lukewarm’; the use of connectives to sequence the action in time,eg ‘then’, ‘while’; the use of adverbials to express details of time andplace, manner, and so on, eg ‘for five minutes’, ‘2centimetres from the top’, ‘carefully’.Some procedures have optional stages such asexplaining reasons for a step, providing alternativesteps, giving cautions, or mentioning possibleconsequences. Directions, rules and spoken procedureswill have a slightly different structure.ASSESSMENTASSESSMENT FOR LEARNING* Teacher feedback on learning activities, with futuredirections and areas of need identified and clearlycommunicated to the student.* Anecdotal records* Comments or notations* Marks and gradesKate Moi & Bronwyn Owen Marie Bashir Public SchoolASSESSMENT AS LEARNING* Self assessment of writing tasks, including assessmentof handwriting style of key letters covered and the useand correct spelling of –at words (individually and as abase word) and high frequency words from texts.
