This unit of work provides students with the opportunity to explore the genres of speculative fiction (a hybrid genre of science fiction and fantasy). Students learn about the features of speculative fiction, including hybrid examples. Students develop an understanding of and skills in creating speculative fiction short stories and texts for a teenage audience, including narrative elements such as characters, settings, themes and structure through analysis of various genre-related visual and written stories. They read, listen to, view and speak about various speculative fiction stories from different times and places, including multimedia texts. This will include exploration of the first Indigenous speculative fiction anthology, This All Come Back Now:
An anthology of First Nations speculative fiction by Mykaela Saunders. Students apply their knowledge and skills about these narrative elements by creating their own multi-media hybrid speculative fiction text.
