Systems of Language - Elaboration 4
- recognising that texts are made up
of one or more clauses which together make meaning
- recognising that different signed texts serve different purposes, and
discussing and comparing these purposes (for example, the text genre procedure
is to explain how, a narrative is to narrate, tell or entertain)
- identifying characteristic structures and features of particular types of
Auslan texts and noticing how they suit the intended purpose, for example, the
expression of emotions in a recount compared to presenting facts in an
information report
- identifying different signs used by a signer to refer to the same person in a
text, considering how this helps to maintain interest and understanding
