How does it work ? 

Once you have downloaded the word document, open it as normal in word. Click enable to allow you to use the document in your Word.  Hover over the "choose an item" and it will show a grey shading around the words, click on the words to reveal a title bar and an arrow. Click on the arrow and the list of objectives available should appear for you to select. There is ample space provided for up to three of each type of objective under Oral language, Reading and Writing, leaving you with more time to spend on planning your activities and preparing your resources.

Please note this is only a template of the objectives, it does not contain actual activities or ideas for lessons. This will save you time when planning, creating short term or fortnightly plans for your class. It only has the fifth and sixth class English language curriculum objectives.
