26th August, 2024 @ 9:00 am

Date/Time:

26/08/2024 - 9:00 am - 3:30 pm

Description:

Tierney Kennedy will be providing two free professional learning sessions for F-8 school leaders and teachers on the major changes in the revised Australian Curriculum v.9 Mathematics and their implications for teaching, learning and assessment.

These sessions will include information on:

  • Content and process shifts for each year level, in jargon-free language
  • Using the AC9 achievement standard and A-E grading support for each year level
  • Setting your school up for success including training sessions to run with your teachers, predicting difficulties, prioritising changes and how to start simply

Leaders and teachers will take away:

  • Content changes “At a Glance” for each year level
  • “Content, Process and Models” analytical tool to use in staff training sessions
  • Proficiency processes “At a Glance” as they appear in the achievement standard for each year level
  • Adaptable A-E assessment criteria for each year level as well as sample reporting comments in parent-friendly language
  • A suggested year-long developmental sequence with AC9 content descriptors for each term so that each year level covers similar concepts at the same time
  • Access to videos, lesson plans and sample assessment items for all your teachers for the remainder of 2024 to make your transition easier
