I received a phone call today from Waggrakine Primary School asking for details of how to access the First Steps documents which link the Australian Curriculum in English and Maths to the First Steps Resource books.
Just in case you haven't seen these fantastic documents - Click on the Learning Area name to access the links below...
How will First Steps 2nd Edition English Resources Support the Implementation of the Australian Curriculum: English?
The Australian Curriculum: English includes content descriptions at each year level in the three strands being language, literature and literacy. These describe the knowledge, concepts skills and processes that teachers are expected to teach and students are expected to learn. The Australian Curriculum does not prescribe approaches to teaching.
First Steps 2nd Edition English resources will help teachers make decisions about instruction and appropriate approaches to teaching, including purposeful activities to achieve the learning outlined within all strands of the Australian Curriculum: English. First Steps resources do not stand in place of the curriculum or a set of standards but can be used as a powerful and practical resource in conjunction with the new Australian Curriculum.
The following pages provide an illustration of the broad links between The Australian Curriculum V1.2 and the First Steps resource texts.
This document will provide guidelines of where you will find support information within the First Steps texts for each of the English Content Descriptors. This includes links to the Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening and Viewing Maps of Development and Resource Books.
