Eureka 1 |
Overview
We will workshop with practical activities, how to meaningfully incorporate Sustainability as a cross-curriculum priority for the already time-poor teacher with actual assessable learning outcomes. We will discuss:
• Why Sustainability (Isn't that just like, recycling..?)
• What Sustainability teaching and learning looks like at HEPS
• Demonstrations of practical/hands on activities from a range of year levels
• How to structure a scope and sequence based on VIC Curriculum within an SDG and RSS framework for real world outcomes
• Developing Sustainability as a specialist area (set up, resources, curriculum, planning, assessment and reporting)
• Meaningful integration of Sustainability into what you're already doing in the classroom
• Whole school approach to Sustainability (Aligning learning with your AIP, school context and community)
