Australian Curriculum Year 2/3 Ultimate Composite Bundle

Want to have more time for yourself and your family? Want to feel like you have conquered the Australian Curriculum and are doing the best by your students?

This Australian Curriculum Year 2/3 Ultimate Composite Bundle is a collection of all my units that combine the outcomes for Year 2 & 3 into easy to teach units. This bundle is guaranteed to make juggling two sets of learning outcomes so much easier!

This ultimate bundle also comes with editable planners, learning intentions, and a grading guide! So, if teaching a split class has you stressed out to the max, this bundle is the solution.

Includes planners aligned to version 8.4 and version 9 of the Australian Curriculum. WA teachers, continue to use 8.4 as this aligns with SCSA curriculum.

  Version 8.4 Science Units (2 x 10 lessons + 4 x 5 lessons):

*The Technologies and Health curriculum are done in bands F/1/2, 3/4 and 5/6 where the outcomes are to be covered over those years, not all in one year. When Technologies units in this bundle say 3/4 it means that it is covers outcomes from the Year 3/4 band. I chose units that shared overlap with the F/1/2 bands but didn't feel it was necessary to create combined units when not all the outcomes are required to be covered.

4 Technologies Units:

• Design Solutions Unit
  Students investigate the suitability of materials, systems, components, tools and equipment for a range of purposes.
• Digital Systems Unit
  Students explore how a range of digital and information systems and solutions meet the needs of people.
• Algorithms Unit
  Students explore algorithms involved in digital solutions to solve simple problems.
• Materials & Forces Unit
  Students investigate how forces and the properties of materials affect the behaviour of a product or system.

3 Health Units

• Health & Safety
  Students identify strategies to promote health, safety and wellbeing.
• Identities & Emotions
  Students explore how success, challenge and failure strengthen identities and investigate emotional responses.
• Keeping Safe
  Students build a bank of strategies they can use when they feel uncomfortable, unsafe, or management changes.
