Representation: Foundation–Year 2 English Unit

Help young learners understand that the same person, place, animal, event or idea can be shown in different ways. This complete Foundation–Year 2 English unit guides students through five connected steps: notice, compare, interpret, create and explain.

Students explore real, illustrated and imagined representations; how words and pictures work together; what symbols can communicate; how setting changes feeling; and how voice, facial expression, movement, costume and props shape performance.
