Text & Media Connections
English · Reading Comprehension · procedural
Make connections between the text of a story or drama and a visual or oral presentation of the text, identifying where each version reflects specific descriptions and directions from the text
What mastery looks like
- Compare a passage from a book with a film or audio adaptation, identifying specific moments where the visual or oral version matches or departs from the written text
- Explain how a film, illustration, or dramatic performance interprets a scene from a story, citing specific textual descriptions the adaptation reflects
- Identify details in the written text (descriptions of setting, character appearance, dialogue) that a visual or oral presentation brings to life, and note any differences
Check your understanding
If Text & Media Connections has read a book and then seen a film version, can they compare the two — pointing out moments where the film showed something differently from how the book described it?
