K - 10 Syllabus
Jenni suggested that we look at the K- 10 Syllabus on the Department of Educations website. I could have spent hours reading through all that information. I have planned alot of different things that I could do with students just from reading the syllabus. It was really interesting to see all the different things that teachers need to include in their lesson planning. Alot of pressure to get it all included and to get it right. As we are aiming our assignment 3 at year 4 I was maily only reading that section. I really like the Health and Physical Education section focusing of 'wellness'. I think its fantastic that the Education Department is trying to increase childrens self esteem, improve acceptance of other cultures, how relationships can differ from person to person and alot more. I think this will greatly in children and the community, as people start to see past the physical differences in each other and realise that everyone ultimately wants the same things.
