Junior School Subject Spotlight: English – Year 4

Oral Language

Students explain processes, give clear presentations, and begin predicting and describing future events.

Reading

They analyse ideas in texts and start to recognise authors’ purposes. They read stories from Aotearoa New Zealand, the Pacific, and beyond to connect with different perspectives.

Writing

Writing involves planning, drafting, and revising across genres, including recounts, reports, and narratives. They begin to experiment with style and structure.
