Day 30 · Use a new source and make your own textYear 4 English · T1 W5–6 · Teacher · Teacher / Day 30

Aim: Sample uncoached source-bound report/view distinction and independent composition on one of three fresh alternative source choices sampling the same four components, then select next teaching from actual evidence. These choices are not calibrated for equal difficulty.

Limited national links: AC9E4LA02, AC9E4LY05, AC9E4LY06, AC9E4LY09. Exact descriptions and limits are in the crosswalk.

Preparation: select a matched independent passage, read the complete named shared text and chosen route, prepare accessible response mode and ordinary paper/text labels. Keep fresh cards and keys closed; offer only one source choice. Child page · Home offer · Optional extras.

Start · 2 min

Pick a new note and a character’s view. Tell the difference, then make something for a new reader.

Separate reading · 4 min

Hear a separate familiar matched text passage to record actual self-reading if practical. For the fresh card, offer verbatim adult reading or accessible text and mark the route. No summary, classification or composition answer preview.

Familiar word review · 4 min

Before the fresh task, revisit already-taught enjoyable on an unrelated example. Do not display fresh words or analyse their answers. Check whether the base/affix prerequisites were actually taught; if absent, gather a matched alternative later rather than treating an untaught form as failure.

Neutral directions · 2 min

Give neutral access directions: “Pick one source card. Your answers are yours. You can write, type, speak, sign, point or dictate. Ask if you need the directions repeated.” Keep the source and four prompts together; teacher keys stay separate. Offer Check B alternative contexts A/B/C with prompts for the same sampled components. These are not calibrated equal-difficulty forms. Leave all own spaces empty. Do not require three responses or a 100-word minimum to complete this short formative component sample.

Fresh check · 14 min

Give about 14 minutes plus continuation/conference if needed. Retain the learner’s words and child/adult contributions separately. Collect before any answer discussion. Do not publish named pupil work.

After collection · 4 min

After collection ask what the learner wants to try next, then choose an earlier practice piece to compare privately if time allows. Other children can use the non-check extra; all check cards stay closed. Teacher chooses next moves from separate component evidence. These ten sessions neither complete Year 4 English nor certify the Queensland C standard. A portfolio, suitable diverse authorised texts and further independent reading/writing/oral evidence are still needed.
