Description

This comprehensive 5-week unit is tailored for NSW DET Stage 2 teachers, focusing on the critical concepts of Theme, Argument, and Authority.

Utilising the engaging mentor texts Kicking Goals with Goodesy and Magic by Anita Heiss (with Adam Goodes and Michael O’Loughlin) and Diary of an AFL Legend by Shamini Flint, this resource encourages students to explore profound themes and understand the role of authorship in presenting an argument.

The unit delves into how authors establish authority within a text, equipping students to identify and discuss themes in literature.

Students will analyse the arguments in these texts, creating two persuasive written pieces and delivering two short oral presentations. They will also draft and publish a digital comic that embodies their comprehension of themes and argument structure.

The content includes guidance for sensitive discussions around racism, offering support through the Multicultural education webpage.

Key components include:

Learning intentions that guide students in presenting arguments, identifying themes, and understanding authorship.

Success criteria to build students' analytical skills, from identifying an author's authority to crafting persuasive texts and presentations.

Opportunities for students to use digital tools for creating and presenting their arguments in multiple formats.

This 260+ page unit includes:

An editable PowerPoint for dynamic lesson delivery
A printable PDF for easy access
A link to a Google Slides version for versatile use
Detailed teaching notes for streamlined instruction

Engage your students with this insightful and engaging unit that empowers them to think critically and express their understanding confidently.

Teaching across a wide range of year levels, including multigrade classrooms, has taught me the importance of adapting lessons so every student can participate, feel supported and make progress. That experience guides the way I plan lessons and create resources. My experience includes: - Teaching multigrade K–2 and Years 3–6 classes - Working as a Reading Recovery, RFF and Learning Support teacher - Creating courses for the ClassCover Relief Teaching Association - Writing units of work for Inquisitive - Working as a unit writer and Learning Support teacher for NSW Distance Education These roles have given me a practical understanding of what students need to learn—and what teachers need to help them succeed.
