Elaborations
- AC9L2AU4U02_E1<p>recognising that non-body-anchored nouns can be located in space and identifying instances of this, for example, </p><p class="ausltrans">HOUSE, FISH</p>
- AC9L2AU4U02_E2identifying how people or objects around the school or environment can be represented by DSs, for example, talking about someone who is not there, describing a part of the playground
- AC9L2AU4U02_E3discussing the functions of different pointing signs, such as pronouns, determiners and locatives
- AC9L2AU4U02_E4<p>noticing that single-digit numbers can be separate lexical items or merged into other signs (numeral incorporation), such as those for ages, for example, </p><p class="ausltrans">AGE-YEARS(FIVE)</p><p>, or adverbs of time, for example, </p><p class="ausltrans">WEEK-AGO(THREE)</p>
- AC9L2AU4U02_E5noticing the relationship between the location of referents in real space and the direction of some indicating verbs in a text
- AC9L2AU4U02_E6<p>knowing that adverbs modify the meaning of verbs, such as </p><p class="ausltrans">READ CAREFULLY</p>
- AC9L2AU4U02_E7<p>understanding that signing involves a combination of signs, CAs and DSs to convey detailed information, for example, <em>The man walked slowly</em> can be expressed as</p><p class="ausltrans-newline">MAN WALK SLOW</p><p>or</p><p class="ausltrans-newline">PT+f DS:MAN-WALKS-SLOWLY</p><p>or</p><p class="ausltrans-newline">CA:MAN-SWINGS-ARMS-NONCHALANTLY</p>
- AC9L2AU4U02_E8<p>using examples of signs that tell when, where or how a verb happens, such as</p><p class="ausltrans-newline">FORWARD WEEK(TWO) PRO1 HOLIDAY</p><p><em>I am going on holiday in 2 weeks.</em></p><p class="ausltrans-newline">WANT LUNCH NOW PLEASE</p><p><em>I want lunch now please.</em></p><p class="ausltrans-newline">PRO1(PL) RUN FAR</p><p><em>We have run far.</em></p><p class="ausltrans-newline">COME-HERE PLEASE</p><p><em>Come here please.</em></p><p class="ausltrans-newline">PRO2 QUICK FINISH</p><p><em>You finished quickly.</em></p>
