emergent Phases 1-2

simple authentic written multimodal texts

Texts used for the reading task should be written multimodal. This means that the texts should have the written mode and other modes such as visual and spatial modes. Examples: a written text with images, a web page with written text and images

At the end of the emergent level, students should be exposed to a wide variety of simple authentic written multimodal texts and be able to:

Level descriptors

Level	Descriptor	Specific indicators
0	The student does not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors below.	—
1-2	identifies minimal stated information (facts and/or opinions) in a variety of simple authentic texts	Identifies basic facts and main ideas in written texts Recognizes basic text types and formats Makes simple connections within written texts Shows limited comprehension of supporting details
3-4	identifies some stated information (facts and/or opinions) in a variety of simple authentic texts	Identifies key information and main ideas clearly Recognizes various text types and their features Makes logical connections within texts Shows good comprehension of supporting details
5-6	identifies most stated information (facts and/or opinions, and supporting details) in a variety of simple authentic texts	Identifies comprehensive information and complex ideas Analyses text types and their conventions Makes sophisticated connections within and between texts Shows excellent comprehension of explicit and implicit details
7-8	identifies explicit and implicit information (facts and/or opinions, and supporting details) in a wide variety of simple authentic texts	Identifies all relevant information with precision Expertly analyses text types and conventions Makes insightful connections across multiple contexts Shows masterful comprehension of complex implicit information
