It maps how critical aspects develop through the years of schooling by describing key markers of expected student achievement. The Literacy continuum K–10 is for all teachers of all subjects from Kindergarten to Year 10. The Literacy continuum K–10 is a powerful tool which all teachers can use to strengthen their knowledge of literacy and so deliver a quality program with a strong literacy focus to enhance learning opportunities for their students. In conjunction with the NSW syllabuses, the continuum assists teachers to integrate literacy into PDHPE. Each subject area has its own literacy requirements which students need to master if they are to maximise their achievement in that learning area. Literacy demands in PDHPE There is a direct relationship between a student’s literacy skills and success in PDHPE.
