About the course
This program is designed to engage 6th grade students in meaningful interactions with a wide variety of texts. They look beyond the literal meaning of texts and observe what is present and what is missing, in order to analyse and evaluate an author’s intent. They analyse the structure and elements of a variety of text forms, and develop their abilities to monitor their own learning and select appropriate strategies that will help them to make sense of, and create increasingly complex and/or challenging texts for personally relevant purposes. They reflect on and talk about the strategies that have helped them construct meaning and communicate successfully in all strands and identify steps they can take to improve.

As part of assessment, teachers provide students with descriptive feedback that guides their efforts towards improvement. The final grade reflects the student’s most consistent level of achievement throughout the course, although special consideration is given to more recent evidence of achievement.
