Academic Task 1 · Processes and maps
Describe stages in order, or how a place changes, using passive and sequencing language.
Lesson
- For a process, count the stages and mention that number in the overview.
- Use sequence markers: first, subsequently, after this, finally.
- The passive is natural when the agent is a machine or is unknown: “the beans are roasted”.
- For maps, describe location with north/south and landmarks, then summarise what was added, removed, or moved.
- Do not skip a labelled stage. Missing a box on the diagram costs Task Achievement marks.
