Each student will be the class expert for an allocated
List Word. They make a small chart with their word and
its dictionary meanings. The words should be presented
to the class on Monday before students start their
Student Book activities, then pinned on the wall for
reference purposes during the week.
Write Platypus Sentences
Students write a Platypus Sentence for the word they
have explored on their Dictionary Chart. For example:
• Mum displays her platypus from holidays in a glass
cabinet.
Teacher numbers the Platypus Sentences and displays
them around the room. Students identify and record
numbered answers during the week.

When students are competent with this, extend the activity to identify the noun or pronoun that is the subject for the

New Types of BLMs
Working independently is an important skill students need to master to
help make the transition from primary to secondary school easier.
Sound Waves 7 promotes this skill with new BLMs designed specifically
for Year 7 students, all of which are available at Sound Waves Online.
The Word List BLMs form a mini-dictionary that students can refer to
when completing their Student Book activities. The Crossword, Match Up
and Find a Word BLMs are ideal for independent work.
For samples of some of the BLMs you will find in Sound Waves 7, see
pages 14–18 of this Preview.

Assessment with Teaching
Dictation with Grammar and Punctuation
Dictation sentences for assessment are provided in every unit of
the Sound Waves 7 Teacher Book. The Dictation sentences can be
used purely as an assessment tool to assess students’ ability to spell
the List Words and use correct punctuation, or as an opportunity to
teach and revise the important grammar concepts outlined in the
Australian Curriculum.
The following example is an excerpt from Unit 2, Balloon:

• Buoyancy vests save lives in disasters at sea.
Dictation for Assessing Spelling and Punctuation
You can use the Dictation sentences to assess students’ ability to spell the List Words and use correct punctuation.
To use the Dictation sentences as an assessment tool:
1 Dictate the sentences for students to record.
2 Write the sentences on the board.
3 Mark and discuss the spelling and punctuation with students.
Dictation for Teaching Grammar
Once you have have marked the first part of the Dictation activity as a group, you can use the sentences as a tool to

To use the Dictation sentences as a teaching tool, ask students to:
1 Underline the verb group.
2 Write: a above all articles, n above all nouns, pn above all pronouns, adj above all adjectives, adv above all
adverbs, pre above prepositions, pp above participles, in above infinitives and conj above conjunctions,
where they apply.
3 Circle the main noun that is the subject that works with the verb.
4 Draw a rectangle around the main noun that is the object to which the verb refers, if there is an object.
5 Draw a curved line under phrases beginning with prepositions.
For example:

Empty eggs – e, e, e.
(pronounced as
e ea
)
Make cup shapes with hands to
be empty egg shells.
Sound Production Key
/e/ is the vowel
sound between /a/
and /i/, in that the
jaw is lowered more
than for /i/ but less
than for /a/. The
lips are stretched
outwards at the corners of the
mouth but are less stretched
than for /i/. The tongue is firm in
the bottom of the mouth and the
voice is briefly turned on.
Tips for Kids:
• /e/ is a quick sound
• your mouth is open and your
lips stretch out a little
• this is a vowel sound,
so nothing gets in the way of
the air coming out.

Each student will be the class expert for an allocated
List Word. They make a small chart with their word and
its dictionary meanings. The words should be presented
to the class on Monday before students start their
Student Book activities, then pinned on the wall for
reference purposes during the week.
Write Platypus Sentences
Students write a Platypus Sentence for the word they
have explored on their Dictionary Chart. For example:
• Mum displays her platypus from holidays in a glass
cabinet.
Teacher numbers the Platypus Sentences and displays
them around the room. Students identify and record
numbered answers during the week.

verb. Gradually introduce the more complex parts of speech.
