Teaching & Learning 6M

Learning in 6M

In Grade 6 the students have been focussing on the inquiry topic of ‘How did early settlement shape Australia?’ 

To help with their learning, this inquiry topic has been integrated into their writing for this week. The students have begun a project on a famous explorer of Australia. This project will then be presented to the class.

This week they have started a Powerpoint presentation by discovering the early life of their explorer, why they came to Australia and what they discovered which made them famous. They will also be learning about the explorer’s interactions with Indigenous people and their land. At the end of the writing project, students will be creating a timeline of important events in this person’s life.

Here are some examples of 6M’s work.
