The session will provide insights and strategies relevant for schools at all stages of their engagement with a Narragunnawali RAP\, including those schools:\n\n considering a RAP and wanting to know more before beginning\n in the process of drafting or implementing their first RAP\n thinking about how to re-engage with a RAP after losing momentum\n highly engaged schools in their second or third RAP\n using RAPs as a vehicle for implementing authentic student agency\n\nA significant number of our member schools have engaged in Narragunnawali RAPs since the launch in 2015. In many senses this is trailblazing work with each school community having their own unique set of opportunities and challenges.\n\nThis workshop is designed to bring together schools at various stages of their RAP journey to learn from each other. Schools new to the RAP implementation and schools who want to reinvigorate their RAP implementation will be able to hear how other schools have approached this\, what has worked and what might have worked better. Schools which have been on the reconciliation journey for many years will be able to share significant turning points in their stories.\n\nWorkshop Outline \n\nThe workshop will be designed so that schools are provided with an opportunity to share:\n\n highlights of their RAP engagement\n challenges of implementing a RAP\n strategies to keep the momentum going\n hopes for the future.\n\n \;\n\nTarget audience: Principals\, School Leaders\, ELC Directors\, RAP Coordinators\, RWG members\, Teachers\n\nDelivery mode: Face to face\n\nPresenters:\nSteve Grant\, Trinity College\nRebecca Greue\, St Peters Lutheran School\nLisa Hollis\, St Peter’s Girls’ School\nMonica Magann\, Prince Alfred College\nTjimari Sanderson-Milera\, Kumarninthi Cultural Education\nMonica Williams\, AISSA\n\n \;\n\nIMPORTANT NOTICE: \n\nDue to current COVID-19 restrictions the AISSA is required to enforce set limits on the number of attendees for this event based on social distancing and maximum density rules.  To secure your place please complete the registration as attendance at the AISSA office without a confirmed place may result in being turned away if the event is at capacity.\n\nThere is no on-site parking available.  For parking options please refer to the parking map.  Tram stop #1 Greenhill Road is a 6-minute walk away.\n\n \;\n\nFor registration enquiries please contact Rae Dawkins.

These elaborations provide examples of how the teaching and learning of the content of Mathematics can be supported using contexts drawn from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures cross-curriculum priority.\n\nEngaging in this project with Aboriginal partners will provide participating schools with increased knowledge and understanding about the new Mathematics content elaborations and their interface with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures cross-curriculum priority and the Mathematics curriculum. Through professional learning\, school-based coaching sessions and action inquiry\, participating leaders and teachers will engage with the elaborations and explore their potential for enriching Mathematics teaching and learning whilst providing a more culturally responsive curriculum experience for students (and teachers).

Teacher presenters\, in partnership with an Aboriginal Elder\, will share how student learning of scientific concepts can be enriched by embedding perspectives from our First Australians.  This professional learning supports the AITSL 1.4 and 2.4 professional standards for teachers and provides guidance in how educators can embed First Nations' perspectives in exciting and innovative ways into classroom learning that promotes reconciliation.\n\nAs part of this workshop\, participants will be given an overview of the ACARA Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elaborations Foundation – Year 6 with explicit links to the Early Years Learning Framework. Educators will have an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of some of the ways these elaborations can be integrated into rich\, scientific learning experiences. This workshop will focus in depth on some of the elaborations and consider how the concepts behind these science activities can be transferred across learning areas. By exploring teaching strategies that sequentially expand a scientific concept from the ELC through to Year 6\, educators will be able to consider a range of approaches to better equip them to differentiate learning.\n\n“The elaborations acknowledge that Aboriginal Peoples and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have worked scientifically for millennia and continue to contribute to contemporary science. They are scientifically rigorous\, demonstrating how Indigenous history\, culture\, knowledge and understanding can be incorporated into teaching core scientific concepts”.
