Teacher presenters\, in partnership with a n Aboriginal Elder\, will share how student learning of scientific concept s can be enriched by embedding perspectives from our First Australians.  This professional learning supports the AITSL 1.4 and 2.4 professional sta ndards for teachers and provides guidance in how educators can embed First Nations' perspectives in exciting and innovative ways into classroom lear ning that promotes reconciliation.\n\nAs part of this workshop\, participa nts will be given an overview of the ACARA Aboriginal and Torres Strait Is lander Elaborations Foundation – Year 6 with explicit links to the Early Years Learning Framework. Educators will have an opportunity to gain a de eper understanding of some of the ways these elaborations can be integrate d into rich\, scientific learning experiences. This workshop will focus in depth on some of the elaborations and consider how the concepts behind th ese science activities can be transferred across learning areas. By explor ing 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 elab orations acknowledge that Aboriginal Peoples and Torres Strait Islander Pe oples 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 inco rporated into teaching core scientific concepts”. (ACARA 2018) \n\nThe S cience curriculum has over the years increased the number of elaborations that demonstrate the connection between the core science concepts and Abor iginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures. The elaborations are spread over the three interrelated fields of the Science Curriculum: Science Understanding\, Science as a Human Endeavour and Science Inquiry S kills.\n\n \;\n\nTarget audience – ELC - Year 6 educators\, director s of learning\, Science and STEM coordinators\n\nDelivery mode – face to face\n\nPresenters – Uncle Tamaru\, Kate Mount\, Specialist Reconciliat ion Consultant\, AISSA\, Monica Williams\, Senior Educational Consultant\, AISSA\, St Peter's Girls' School ELC\, Pulteney Grammar School\, Immanuel College and Southern Montessori School\n\n \;\n\nFor registration enq uiries please contact Rae Dawkins.\n\nThere is no on-site parking availabl e.  For parking options please refer to the parking map.  Tram stop #1 Greenhill Road is a 6-minute walk away.
