Wattle Gum Curriculum Year 5 English

The focus in Year 5 English is on three connected strands;  Language, Literature and Literacy.
  • These strands focus on developing students’ knowledge, understanding and skills.
  • They cover: listening, reading, viewing, speaking, writing and creating.
  • Your child will be building on skills learnt in earlier years.
  • Many English skills are learnt and supported by cross-curricular learning.
  • Immersion in quality literature across each subject covers much of the English strands.

Our English curriculum, resource recommendations and implementation instructions are in the printable pdf.
