    Success Criteria: I can….

    -apply the Film-Making Techniques in my own film such as Story/Plot, Themes, Characterisation, Dialogues, Camera Angles, Camera Shots Camera- Movements, Editing , Music, Sound etc.

     -think critically about texts (Film) with understanding & confidence and recognise, understand and consider how texts are constructed for a range of purposes, audiences, and situations (Environmental Sustainability)

    -construct texts (speech) that demonstrate an understanding of purpose (public speaking)  and audience through deliberate choice of content, language, and text form and can seek  feedback to make changes to texts to improve clarity, meaning, and effect

    -use a wide range of oral & written language features and an increasing range of vocabulary to communicate precise meaning & effect, to sustain interest and to achieve a sense of coherence when constructing texts

    -convey and sustain a personal voice where appropriate by being reflective about the production of my own texts: monitor and self-evaluate progress, articulate learning with confidence.
