ACARA (Australian Curriculum)

For instance, cards on themes, settings, and symbolism help students interpret and evaluate literary texts, while discussion prompts encourage creating spoken and multimodal responses that reflect on ideas and language features.


US Common Core


Aligned with ELA standards for Grades 4+, promoting reading comprehension, speaking and listening, and analyzing story elements through collaborative, play-based activities. Cards guide students to determine themes, describe characters and events with details, and engage in group discussions, fostering skills like building on others' ideas and expressing thoughts clearly during presentations.


UK National Curriculum


Ideal for Key Stages 2+ English, supporting comprehension, spoken language, and understanding how texts are structured and interpreted in engaging ways. Through activities like making inferences, discussing word meanings, and debating viewpoints, the cards build learners' ability to elaborate on understandings and use language effectively in formal and informal contexts.
