| Commentary: Year 8 students read the movie price and time table with more accuracy than year 4 students (47 percent compared with 9 percent obtaining a score of 9 or 10 correct). Year 8 students were particularly more successful at providing the full details of times (e.g. “Thursday, after 5pm”) rather than partial details (e.g. “Thursday”). |
