Is Vietnamese Language for Grade 5 the same subject as Literature?

Based on Section I of the Appendix to the Literature curriculum for general education issued with Circular 32/2018/TT-BGDDT, teaching literature in Grade 5 has the following characteristics:

Literature is a subject within the field of Language and Literature education, taught from Grade 1 to Grade 12. In primary school, this subject is called Vietnamese; in lower secondary and upper secondary school, it is called Literature.

Literature is a subject with both utilitarian and aesthetic-humanistic values; it helps students with a means of communication, serving as a foundation to study all other subjects and educational activities in school. Simultaneously, it is also an important tool to educate students on the noble values of culture, literature, and the national language; fostering in students healthy emotions, humanistic sentiments, and altruistic lifestyles...

Through literary texts and the vivid artistic imagery in literary works, by engaging in reading, writing, speaking, and listening activities, the subject of Literature plays a significant role in helping students develop good qualities and core competencies to live and work effectively, to be lifelong learners.

The content of Literature is integrative, including knowledge of culture, ethics, philosophy,... related to many subjects and educational activities such as History, Geography, Arts, Civic Education, Foreign Language, Natural and Social Sciences, Experiential Activities, and Career Orientation,... Literature also closely relates to life; it helps students become more concerned with and attached to daily life, understanding and solving real-life issues.

The core content of the subject includes fundamental and essential knowledge and skills about Vietnamese and literature, meeting the requirements for students' qualities and competences at each educational level. It is divided into two phases: the basic education phase and the career orientation phase.

Basic education phase: The curriculum is designed along main strands corresponding to the skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Vietnamese and literature knowledge is integrated throughout the teaching of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. The learning materials are selected and arranged in line with students' reception abilities at each grade level.

The objective of this phase is to help students master the use of Vietnamese to communicate effectively in life and perform well in other subjects and educational activities; to develop literary competence, a manifestation of aesthetic competence; and to nurture thoughts and emotions for students' mental and personal development.

Career orientation phase: The curriculum consolidates and develops the results of the basic education phase, enhancing students' language and literary competence, especially in literary text reception; strengthening the skills to create argumentative texts, and informational texts that are more complex in content and writing techniques; providing basic knowledge of literary history and literary theory that is practically useful for reading and writing about literature; continuing to foster thoughts, emotions, mental, and moral qualities to help students become responsible citizens.

Additionally, in each year, students with an orientation in social sciences and humanities can select study modules to enhance literary and linguistic knowledge, applying this knowledge practically, meeting interests, needs, and career orientations.

Thus, it can be seen that at the primary level, this subject is called Vietnamese; at the secondary and upper secondary school levels, it is called Literature.
