Year 5 Hindi Achievement Standard – Australian Curriculum v9
This Achievement Standard describes what students are expected to know and do in Year 5 Languages by the end of the year. Teachers can use it to guide assessment design, collect evidence of learning, and ensure planning stays aligned with the Australian Curriculum v9.
What Students Should Know
By the end of Year 6, students initiate and use strategies to maintain interactions in Hindi language that are related to their immediate environment. They use appropriate sound combinations, intonation and rhythm in spoken texts. They collaborate in spoken and written activities that involve the language of planning and problem-solving to share information, ideas and preferences. They use strategies to locate and interpret information and ideas in texts, and demonstrate understanding by responding in Hindi or English, adjusting their response to context, purpose and audience. They create texts, selecting and using a variety of vocabulary and sentence structures, and Devanāgarī script, to suit context. They sequence information and ideas, and use conventions appropriate to text type.
Students apply rules for pronunciation and intonation in spoken Hindi. They apply conventions of spelling and punctuation, and use modelled structures, when creating and responding in Hindi. They compare language structures and features in Hindi and English, using some metalanguage. They show understanding of how some language reflects cultural practices and consider how this is reflected in their own language(s), culture(s) and identity.
