Text creation skills and strategies
Students create oral, written, and multimodal texts, using a range of language skills appropriate to purpose, audience, and context.

- use a range of digital, multimodal, social media, and print‑based technologies
- experiment with a range of stylistic features and structural devices
- develop research skills and strategies to collect, collate, and integrate information to achieve a purpose
- use e‑literacy skills and understand context-appropriate etiquette and expectations
- plan, rehearse, and edit to refine language and structural choices in their texts.
