Lessons plan and lesson resources

I have added an example of a personal HSIE lesson plan. This lesson plan is based on a Stage One class within the strand: The Way We Were. The lesson focuses on the subject of 'toys' in the past and present. Students in this lesson will be comparing the toys of the past and present and answering questions and working in groups to discuss toys.

I have uploaded the ICT resource which compliments this lesson. It is  PowerPoint presentation with pictures of past and present toys which the children will be looking at, comparing and discussing. It also has a copy of the  slide with the questions the children will be working on in their inquiry groups.

I have also added a collection of YouTube videos on a number of different HSIE subjects to assist my self and other teachers to have a collection of videos they are able to refer and reference.
