Manitoba English Language Arts
The reading, viewing and listening skills within the Manitoba English Language Arts Curriculum connect to CTRL-F strategies of critically investigating and evaluating information. This includes identifying who creates texts and for what purposes, drawing conclusions about the explicit and implicit messages in texts, and determining the impact texts may have on those who read and view them.
