Year 7 NAPLAN reading practice

Year 7 reading mixes text types within a single paper — a report next to a poem next to an argument — and expects the reader to switch approach with them.

What the section covers

Finding information: Locating a detail that is stated directly, sometimes in a table or a caption rather than the paragraphs.
Working things out: Answers the text implies but never says — why a character acted, what happened between two paragraphs.
Purpose and audience: Recognising persuasion, bias and tone, and how a writer's choices shape the reader.
Comparing texts: Holding two texts side by side and noticing where they agree, differ or contradict.
