| Abstract: |
The article focuses on one Year six student who is working towards the Year 6 Australian mean score for reading on the Progressive Achievement Test-Reading (PAT-R) (Australian Council for Educational Research, n.d.) Topics include the importance of looking inside the overall score to examine how different text types draw on distinct reading knowledge and skills and how targeted instructional connections can support nuanced reading development. |
