Teaching Table
Set out your lesson
Compare written scene directions with a performed oral adaptation using specific evidence.
Follow a four-sentence story; hearing access may use transcript, which changes evidence to text-to-text comparison.
Directed source edges are preserved, not assumed completed. If the readiness probe is difficult, model with support and record supported practice instead of independent evidence.
Use the supplied stage-specific structured materials. Plain paper and pencil; screen viewing is optional.
Show, guided, put teaching sheet aside, then task sheets in order; adult keys remain private.
No printing or cutting is required unless explicitly choosing a physical construction. Exact paper alternatives are in each material; adaptations change the evidence mode as stated.
Materials are ready in each step. Use them on screen or print just the current step. Put teaching examples aside before the learner tries.
What this lesson covers and its limits
These are bounded opportunities, not learner attainment. Partial and blocked source requirements remain so.
- partial: Make connections between the text of a story or drama and a visual or oral presentation of the text, identifying where each version reflects specific descriptions and directions from the text
Actual written scene and exact performance script supplied; no recording or film delivered. Oral performance must really occur or evidence stays text-to-text, not fabricated media experience. This is a bounded task opportunity, not established attainment or automatic use across contexts.
- partial: Compare a passage from a book with a film or audio adaptation, identifying specific moments where the visual or oral version matches or departs from the written text
Mapped task(s) offer this clause only within the supplied examples. Actual written scene and exact performance script supplied; no recording or film delivered. Oral performance must really occur or evidence stays text-to-text, not fabricated media experience. No attainment or automatic/general performance is claimed.
- partial: Explain how a film, illustration, or dramatic performance interprets a scene from a story, citing specific textual descriptions the adaptation reflects
Mapped task(s) offer this clause only within the supplied examples. Actual written scene and exact performance script supplied; no recording or film delivered. Oral performance must really occur or evidence stays text-to-text, not fabricated media experience. No attainment or automatic/general performance is claimed.
- partial: Identify details in the written text (descriptions of setting, character appearance, dialogue) that a visual or oral presentation brings to life, and note any differences

- partial: If {{name}} has read a book and then seen a film version, can they compare the two — pointing out moments where the film showed something differently from how the book described it?
