Support for Chinese Stage 4
This Stage 4 scope and sequence and 10-week unit have been designed to support the Modern Languages K–10 Syllabus (2022).
The scope and sequence is for the 100-hour mandatory course, and includes suggested summative assessment tasks.
The 10-week unit introduces students to Chinese language (including Hanzi) and culture in the context of meeting people. It includes related resources, mini tasks (progress checkpoints) and the summative assessment task.
You will also find a detailed sample scope and sequence for Stages 4 and 5, which includes suggested grammar, vocabulary and structures. This document aims to provide an overview of learning across Stages 4 and 5, preparing students for the Stage 6 Continuers course.
Timeframes, formative and summative assessment tasks, teaching and learning activities and reflection and feedback opportunities should be adjusted to suit your context, including the specific strengths and needs of students.
