Use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising, monitoring and questioning when listening, reading and viewing to build literal and inferred meaning in texts by drawing on vocabulary and growing knowledge of context and text structures

For example:

  • previewing texts to draw on prior knowledge of text structure to help navigate the text
  • making connections to other texts to help build literal and inferred meaning
  • listening for and drawing on vocabulary, such as topic‑specific words to help summarise an informative text
  • monitoring understanding by participating in discussions and reflecting on other people’s ideas about texts
  • visualising a character and/or setting using the author’s descriptions to help build inferred meaning
  • searching for information to clarify questions or misunderstandings about the text
