NSW syllabus and curriculum is designed to accommodate the needs of special needs children with visual and representational studies that allow children who cannot communicate verbally to learn either through sign language or other symbols so that any child can reach their maximum potential in communication regardless of any physical or mental limitation.
The NSW English curriculum involves a graduated step by step procedure that begins with learning to communicate in Australian English through viewing, listening, reading, writing and representation.
The system begins teaching children to communicate with peers and adults in an effective manner that is age appropriate but expressive and creative. Next comes informal speaking that guides a child to develop a sense of context and defines hat situations require what kind of language and presentation. Role playing is a very important part of developing these skills and is stressed.
Next come written language. Basic spelling and grammar come first naturally. Once a child has mastered the basics the system teaches them how to compose simple writing at first that clearly communicates an idea or concept. Next, children advance to composing complex text that is audience appropriate and designed to develop persuasive communication skills.
Further instructions increase each child’s knowledge of more advanced text and grammar, creates a keener awareness of context and subject matter that is appropriate for a given audience, and proceeds on to creative writing and composition.
In the electronic age communication skills have never been more important. Most people’s communication for work is done in writing emails, text messages, website updates, and social media posts. Jacaranda’s English syllabus and curriculum teach your child how to communicate effectively and personably to any person or group so they can get the results and response they desire.
Success in life and business is communication in an effective and audience friendly manner. So give your child and students the advantage they deserve with a system that makes learning English and using English fun and productive.
