ALARM stands for “A Learning And Responding Matrix” It is a very helpful scaffold that provides a framework for learning, breaking down of tasks, feedback and reflection for students and teachers. Students can use this technique to help with their abilities in writing extended written responses for assessment tasks and in examination questions One emphasis of ALARM is empowering students to identify the Board of Studies key words. By understanding the key words, students will then know what is expected of them in their answers and how much detail is required for full marks. This is one poster that I give to every one of my students to use throughout the HSC course. It also works across other subjects and has been shown to improve students writing abilities.

This is an excellent assessment task which assesses two HSC modules for PDHPE. The best part is, itis focused on one of the world most popular fun-runs; Sydney's City2Surf. Students are responsible for using the information and content learn across these two modules to complete this. Want to go the extra step? Make a group of your school students who actually want to do the city2surf to enable this task to have real-life application. This resource includes instructions of the task, outcomes addressed and a marking criteria.

Finally, a document with all you need in one place to run an engaging and successful Round Robin Tournament. This package includes competition draw and schedules for a tournament based on 4-10 competing teams. Included is a score sheet, arranged in a grid to note down the score of each individual game. Also included is a points tally. The document is editable, so you can change it up any way you like according to your needs. Works fantastic with students. I find that teams that have a "bye" can referee the games. They get 1 point for correct refereeing. This encourages not only learning and abiding by rules but also fair play, responsibility and accountability among peers. Let the students run their own competition! You sit back, announce each round and enjoy your students taking part!
