In this unit students explore landscapes and common features of local environments. The unit assists the use and development of geographical inquiry and skills outlined in the Australian Curriculum. Learning begins by examining students’ natural environment. Students identify natural versus man-made features. This is extended though a literacy recount writing task. Students then observe and analyse different types of landscapes – beach, city, rural and country. Students identify the distinct features of these landscapes. To close the unit, students create an information report that summarises learning throughout the entire unit, giving students an opportunity to reflect on the geographical features of their own location. Worksheets, templates, PowerPoint, and Assessment Rubrics.
This unit takes students on a journey back in time, as they discover that houses have stories to tell. Students use the historical inquiry questions - who, what, when, why, how, and where, to better understand times and cultures of various times in history. Although based on Historical Sites in South Australia, the unit can be adapted to any place in the world. After extensive study of local history, students write their own historical narratives, relating significance of life in those times.
