A character is revealed through what they say, do, think, and notice, and through what others say about them. An adjective such as generous needs evidence. If a child gives away the last piece of fruit, the action can support generosity, though the situation might suggest a different motive. Track changes across a story: a quiet character may act bravely later. Distinguish the narrator's description from your own judgment. A convincing response explains how a particular action helps the reader understand the person.
චරිතයක කතා, ක්රියා හා සිතුවිලි බලා එහි ගුණ හඳුනාගන්න. ගුණයක් කියන විට උදාහරණයක් දෙන්න; කතාව පුරා එම චරිතය වෙනස් වන හැටිත් බලන්න.
A useful reading response moves from a clear claim to a precise piece of evidence and then to an explanation. Return to the exact part of the text before deciding. Short evidence is usually easier to analyse than a long copied passage. Keep the wording of the question in mind so that an accurate observation also becomes a relevant answer.
ප්රශ්නයට ගැළපෙන අදහස ලියා, පාඨයෙන් කෙටි සාක්ෂියක් ගෙන එය ඔබේ පිළිතුරට සම්බන්ධ වන හැටි පැහැදිලි කරන්න.
At Stage 4, use a short narrative or an accessible information text about a place, animal, or school project. Explain the choice you make rather than only naming a rule. Aim for connected paragraphs when writing and relevant evidence when reading. Compare the first draft with the intended meaning before deciding what to change.
