Educational talk with a Park Ranger

Transcription

1 Prep Students learn about David Students learn that living things have basic needs and investigate how the rangers look after the animals at David Fleay. Living things have basic needs Why is it important to protect and care for places? with a Park Ranger ACSSU002 living things have basic needs, including food and water. ACSHE013 science involves observing, asking questions, and describing changes. ACSIS014 pose and respond to questions about familiar objects and events. ACSIS011 participate in guided investigations and make observations using the senses. ACHASSI008 draw simple conclusions based on discussions, observations, and information. ACHASSI009 reflect on learning to propose how to care for places and sites that are important and significant. ACHASSK015 the places people live in and belong to, their familiar features, and why they are important to people. ACHASSK017 the reasons why some places are special to people and how they can be looked after. Unit 1 ready, set, grow! Life cycles; relationships between living things and their dependence on the environment; human and natural changes to habitat and their impact on the survival of living things. Geography Unit 1 exploring environments and places Types of natural vegetation and native animals; interconnections between people and the environment; characteristics of places; different views on how the environment should be protected. Geography Unit 2 using places more sustainably Different views about the environment; approaches to sustainability; using places and environments more sustainably.

2 One Students learn about David Students learn that living things have characteristics and features. Students learn how the rangers use science to look after the environment. Characteristics and features of living things Caring for Australian animals Animals and plants live in different habitats Why is it important to protect and care for places? ACSSU017 living things have a variety of external features. ACSSU211 living things live in different places where their needs are met.

ACSIS038 guided investigations to explore and answer questions. ACSIS039 collect and record observations. ACHASSI035 collect data and information from observations. ACHASSI037 sequence familiar objects and events. ACHASSI041 draw simple conclusions based on discussions, observations, and information. ACHASSI042 reflect on learning to propose how to care for places and sites that are important. ACHASSK044 the history of a significant person or part of the natural environment. Unit 3 good to grow Living things change as they grow; life stages; similarities/differences between parents/offspring; needs of living things; caring for living things in the environment. Unit 4 save Planet Earth Local features; protecting places; importance of places; conservation actions; looking after habitats; everyday living decisions about conservation. Geography Unit 2 how are people and places connected? Places are connected to each other; people are connected to places; how connections with places influences care for them.

4 Three Students learn about David Students learn how living things can be identified and grouped by their features and characteristics. for the environment, and propose actions for sustainability in the future. Characteristics and features Why is it important to protect and care for the environment and living things? Taking action for the future ACSSU044 living things can be grouped on the basis of observable features. ACSSU050 science involves describing patterns and relationships. ACSHE051 science knowledge helps understand the effect of actions. ACHASSI052 pose questions about past and present people, places, events, and issues. ACHASSI053 collect information from different sources. ACHASSI055 sequence information about people s lives and events. ACHASSI058 draw simple conclusions based on analysis of information. ACHASSI060 propose actions in response to an issue. ACHASSK072 why people participate within communities and how students can actively participate and contribute. Unit 1 is it living? Living things can be distinguished from nonliving things; observable features; effects of human actions. Geography Unit 2 protecting places near and far Interconnections between people and places; perceptions of place influence protection of places; individual actions to protect and improve places.

5 Four Students learn about David Fleay and how he built the wildlife park to protect Australian animals and Students learn how living things grow and change through life cycles. Students are introduced to the idea of how living things depend on each other and their environment, as well as the concept of food webs and interconnections. for the environment, the importance of science, and propose actions for sustainability in the future. Life cycles Habitats How is every living thing connected? Taking action for the future Consequences ACSSU072 living things have life cycles. ACSSU073 living things depend on each other and the environment to survive. ACSHE061 science involves making predictions and describing patterns and relationships. ACSHE062 science knowledge helps people to understand the effect of their actions. ACSIS066 make and record observations. ACSIS069 reflect on investigations. ACHASSI074 locate and collect information and data from different sources. ACHASSI075 record, sort, and represent data in different formats. ACHASSI076 sequence information about people s lives and events. ACHASSI078 interpret data and information to identify and describe simple patterns. ACHASSI079 draw simple conclusions based on analysis. ACHASSI081 - Reflect on learning to propose actions in response to an issue or challenge; consider possible effects of proposed actions. ACHASSK088 the importance of environments including natural vegetation to animals and people. Unit 1 ready, set, grow! Life cycles; relationship between living things and their dependence on the environment; human and natural changes to habitat and their impact on survival of living things. Geography Unit 1 exploring environments and places Types of natural vegetation and native animals; interconnections between people and the environment; characteristics of places; different views on how the environment should be protected.

6 Five Students learn about David Fleay and how he built the wildlife park to protect Australian animals and Students learn how living things have structural features and behavioural adaptations that help them survive in specific environments. They explore how the David Fleay occupies protected land, and how caring for this park is different to other places. for the environment, the importance of science, and propose actions for sustainability in the future. Adaptations Structural features and behaviours Interconnections between people/ environment Taking action for the future Consequences ACSSU043 living things have structural features and adaptations that help them to survive in their environment. ACSHE081 gather data and use evidence to develop explanations of events and phenomena. ACSHE083 scientific knowledge is used to solve problems and inform decisions. ACSIS087 observe, measure, and record data. ACHASSI095 locate and collect relevant information and data. ACHASSI097 sequence information about people s lives, event, developments, and phenomena. ACHASSI101 evaluate evidence to draw conclusions. ACHASSI104 reflect on learning to propose personal and collective action in response to an issue or challenge. ACHASSK112 the influence of people on environmental characteristics. ACHASSK113 the environmental and human influences on the location and characteristics of a place. Unit 1 survival in the Australian environment Structural features and behavioural adaptations assist living things to survive in their environment; factors that influence how plants and animals survive in extreme environments. Geography Unit 1 exploring how people and places affect one another Explore human and environmental factors that influence the characteristics of places; interconnections between people/environment.

7 Six Students learn about David Fleay and how he built the wildlife park to protect Students learn how the environment can affect the growth and survival of living things. Students discuss human impacts, as well as personal and community decisions and actions to care for the environment. for the environment, the importance of science, and propose actions for sustainability in the future. Environmental conditions Growth and survival Human impacts Making decisions Taking action for the future Consequences ACSSU094 the growth and survival of living things are affected by physical conditions of their environment.
