Australian Curriculum Literature template (Foundation Year)

I’ve just uploaded my latest template – this one is for the Foundation year i.e. Prep and it’s a literature unit. See Goodies to Share in the menu above.

Australian Curriculum: Literature units of work

Just an update so that readers of this blog know what I’m working on. (Let’s not reinvent any wheels! Let’s not duplicate each other’s work!)

This term I am updating my existing Term 1 literature units so that they include relevant elements of the new Australian Curriculum.

So the learning focuses include

• SLAV library skills
• VELS Thinking Processes; Interpersonal Development and Personal Learning
• Australian Curriculum English Literature  (and maybe also Language and Literacy)

Assessment includes

• SLAV library skills
• VELS Thinking Processes; Interpersonal Development and Personal Learning outcomes
• Australian Curriculum English Literature  (and maybe also Language and Literacy) elaborations (which is the silly word they have chosen for outcomes)

The units I am working on are

• Aesop’s Fables (Preps)
• Traditional Tales (fairy tales) (Years 1 & 2)
• Author Study: Hans Christian Andersen (Years 3 & 4)
• Traditional Tales (myths & legends) Years 5 & 6 – Beowulf by Michael Morpurgo

Once I have tweaked the planning templates to my satisfaction you will be able to download them as well, but getting these right is what’s taking the time.   

I hope to have these four units – and the templates – available for download some time during the Easter holidays.
