# English, Term 1 Weeks 1–2 — perspective, evidence and fair response

**Version:** v0.1, 29 September 2026. **Status:** Year 9 educator, EAL/D, accessibility, cultural and local-syllabus review pending. Open [ten 25-minute lessons](lessons.md), [clean learner packet](learner-packet.md), [teacher source notes and keys](aids.md), [low-ink visual post](fictional-community-post.svg) ([PNG](fictional-community-post.png)) and [fresh keyed assessment](assessment.md). Print the learner packet for students; keep the keys with the teacher.

**Prepare:** Students inspect two invented public-place proposals, a mock post, a neutral planning note and attributed fictional voices. No post represents a real council, platform or person; no class is asked to vote on an actual policy. Establish discussion norm: analyse **the words and evidence**, not classmates' identity. Show that a sweeping claim about young people is unsupported without asking any teenager to defend a category. Offer adjustable text, screen reader/teacher read-aloud, tactile/description route for visual features, sign/AAC discussion, keyboard or adult scribe. A read-aloud can provide access to reasoning; record independent reading evidence separately. Do not grade speed, handwriting or visual design when the construct is perspective and argument.

**National alignment:** The authored work partially samples AC9E9LA02 (direct/indirect evaluation), AC9E9LA04 (cohesion/nominalisation), AC9E9LA07 (symbols in images), AC9E9LY03 (perspective), AC9E9LY04 (idea organisation), AC9E9LY05 (compare sources) and AC9E9LY06 (plan/create/edit/publish). Exact Year 9 content-description records checked against the [official ACARA v9 download](https://www.australiancurriculum.edu.au/downloads), retrieved 29 September 2026, workbook SHA-256 `db446882d2c00cf7c085a03e250e2442fda6c44011fc114680c46c1dc7a822c3`. The school must supply a substantial literature, spelling, speaking and wider reading program; two media weeks cannot prove full English achievement.
