HUGE Supporting Slideshow - Stage 2 Unit 6 NESA Unit - POWERPOINT FORMAT!!!

BY POPULAR DEMAND!! Now with PowerPoint and PDF versions!! Please read the description below for details.

This is a HUGE, 460+ page supporting slideshow for the new NESA Stage Three English Unit (6) which explicitly teaches the concept of perspective and context using the mentor text, “August & Jones” by Pip Harry.

Please note: This is the second unit which uses ‘August & Jones’ as a mentor text. The first unit is Stage 3 Unit 5 ‘Characterisation’, which is also available in my store.

This resource is a supporting slideshow which means it is linked to the Department of Education (NSW) unit of work which teaches Stage 3 students about perspective and context. This unit of work is available for free on the NESA site (it is also included in this resource). All the corresponding lessons are included in the slideshow, meaning this is a complete no-prep resource, when used in conjunction with the lesson guide.

Slides are full-colour, engaging and fun, whilst also encapsulating all the key concepts of the unit, so you don’t need to cross-reference or produce these yourself.

NOTE: This unit is presented in two formats. One is as a series of PDFs. The other is a non-editable PowerPoint slideshow. This is due to many requests from my lovely customers who have asked for slideshows to be in PPT format. This means you can pick slides, add your own content, delete unneeded slides, or embed selected material into your daily slideshow. It also means that external links are embedded. Easy peasy!! Please be aware that the slides themselves are not editable.

This unit of work focuses on imaginative text, but also includes MANY Component A elements, including:

• gist statements
• synonyms
• tenses
• declarative, exclamatory, interrogative and imperative sentences
• modality
• adverbial clauses
• appositives
• analytical and evaluative questions
  …and much more!

Assessment tasks are embedded throughout the unit, with assessment opportunities highlighted. The culmination of the unit is a formal writing task whereby students create a personal blog.

Simply put, this resource is everything you need to teach the new English curriculum in your Stage 3 classroom! All the hard work and preparation is done for you, so you can…teach!

This is a huge unit. It will take up a significant amount of storage space, so I recommend storage on Google Drive or similar.

Corresponding page numbers to the syllabus document from the NSW Department of Education are given in the corner of each slide.

Please note: this slideshow focuses on the complete learning pathway of Component B, with Component A embedded throughout as “mini -lessons” or concepts. There is not a stand-alone slideshow for Component A.

I have lots of other Literacy resources in my store (based on Australian content) so feel free to check them out.

Happy reading!
