Understanding
Systems of language
- Elaboration 4
- recognising that texts are made up of one or more clauses, which have one
or more signs in them, which together make meaning
- looking at short recounts or narratives in Auslan and identifying information
necessary to communicate with others such as who was involved or when and where
the event happened
- recognising that different signed texts serve different purposes and
discussing and comparing these purposes, for example, a procedure is to explain
how, a narrative is to entertain
- identifying how signers use space to track participants through a text, for
example by pointing back to an established location to refer to a noun referent
- identifying the many ways signers can refer to the same referent in a text,
for example by using DSs, points or list buoys, and noticing how such strategies
help maintain interest and support understanding
