Source document note: The official curriculum document has a fault in this entry, so the curriculum text above is transcribed exactly as printed:

content standard text - p.52 the document prints the learning-outcome code as "1.4.3.LO1", with no separator before the final digit
exemplars - p.56 the document prints this assessment code as "1.4.3.AS.1", the same code it prints for the preceding indicator on the same page; the document numbers assessments in parallel with indicators everywhere else, so 1.4.3.AS.2 is what the convention gives, but the printed form is kept rather than renumbered

Building on What Others Say: Brainstorm on the examples of domestic trade. Pay attention to learners approaching proficiency. Encourage learners to respect one another's views.
