Celebrating Writing

Language shapes our understanding of ourselves and our world. It is the primary means by which we relate to others and is central to the intellectual, social and emotional development of all students. From Kindergarten to Year 6, English is the study and use of the English language in its various textual forms. These encompass spoken, written and visual texts of varying complexity through which meaning is shaped, conveyed, interpreted and reflected.

The students at St Pius X have been hard at work during their English block over the course of the year. Along with reading, writing is a major focus for all grades. Writing is taught using a range of guided, modelled and independent activities with peer and teacher feedback at different stages. We use a range of assessments, standardised tests, workbooks and teacher observations to track student learning and growth.

In celebration of all things writing, here are some of the fantastic pieces of work that our students have completed over the past few weeks.
