Consistent with the rationale of the Languages curriculum, this outline supports students’ ability to communicate proficiently in a language other than English, with essential communication skills in that language, an intercultural capability, and an understanding of the role of language and culture in human communication. Time allocation on which the outline is based Two hours of teaching per week, over one year Prior knowledge In Year 4 Chinese: Second Language, students communicated in Chinese, interacting and socialising with their teacher and peers to exchange information about aspects of their personal worlds, including their daily routines at home and school. They exchanged simple correspondence in writing to report on their daily routines at home and at school. Students located and conveyed factual information from familiar types of texts and they located factual information in texts to inform others using learnt words, phrases and characters. Students created and presented their own representations of familiar songs, poems or stories. They also created short imaginative texts using modelled language. Students became familiar with the systems of the Chinese language, understanding the components of Pinyin. They recognised high-frequency Chinese characters related to their personal world and they used context-related vocabulary and simple sentences to generate language for a range of purposes. The sample teaching and learning outline provides a range of suggested learning activities and assessment tasks, aligned to the curriculum, through which students can apply their acquisition of knowledge, understanding and skills. In order to provide schools with choice, in some focus areas, the number of suggested learning activities is more than what can be expected to be undertaken in the time allocated.
