2nd Language (F-10)

Years 9 - 10 Level
Description

In Years 9 and 10, Auslan learning builds on each student's prior learning and experiences. Students use Auslan to initiate and sustain interactions that communicate their own and others' experiences of the world. They sign and view to communicate with users of Auslan through community and online events. They access and create signed, visual and multimodal texts, increasingly of their own choosing. They continue to receive guidance, feedback and support.

Students access an increasing range of authentic and purpose-developed resources which may include feature articles, social media, television programs, textbooks and video clips. They expand their knowledge and control of Auslan signs, structures and features. They acknowledge that there are diverse influences on ways of communication and cultural identity, and that these influences can shape their own behaviours, beliefs and values.
