AC: Sustainablility

http://www.australiancurriculum.edu.au/CrossCurriculumPriorities/Sustainability

Our Cool School

http://www.ourcoolschool.org/select/state/

and http://www.coolbrisbane.org/

Sustainability: Cool Australia has a mission to educate young Australians for a sustainable future and we do this by providing free classroom resources that are focused on the environment but also curriculum aligned to multiple subject disciplines. 

Global Education

http://www.globaleducation.edu.au/teaching-and-learning/australian-curriculum.html

Global education aims to develop global citizens through promotion of open mindedness and a willingness to take action for change, respecting and valuing diversity, and being active in the development of a peaceful, just and sustainable world. It has much in common with the Melbourne Declaration on Education Goals for Young Australians (2008), which promotes equity and excellence, development of successful learners, confident and creative individuals and active and informed citizens.

Global Worlds

The twelve units of work in Global Words have been produced by World Vision Australia and the Primary English Teaching Association Australia (PETAA) to integrate the teaching and learning of English with global citizenship education.

The aim in creating Global Words was to produce a high quality, digitally delivered, multi-modal education resource that will support students and teachers achieve the learning aims and outcomes outlined in the Global Perspectives: A framework for global education in Australian schools statement (.pdf 4.5 MB) and the new Australian Curriculum for English for Years 3–8.

The Australian Curriculum: English emphasises that Australia is a linguistically and culturally diverse country. In the curriculum rationale it states that learning through English contributes both to nation building and to a worldview.

The Global Words units of work are designed for junior Primary, upper Primary and junior Secondary students to engage meaningfully with the three interrelated English curriculum strands of Literature, Literacy and Language.

Literature expands the scope of students’ experiences and develops qualities of empathy and moral discernment essential to global citizenship.

Literacy practices enable students to engage with a range of factual, persuasive and literary texts to both build knowledge and to effectively communicate across a range of contexts.

Knowledge of the meaning-making potential of language and related semiotic resources underpins that engagement with literature and literacies.

Green Lane Diary 

Every day actions can and do make a difference

 The Green Lane Diary is an exciting and innovative sustainability and civics education program for students in years 3--‐7 during Term 3.

 The focus of this free, national curriculum--‐linked program is to build a broad understanding of sustainability issues, empowering students to become active and informed citizens in their homes, schools, and communities. From creating cool videos to community campaigns, it is your student’s gateway to all things sustainable, civic minded and environmental.

 The next generation is leading the way using new media and their imagination. Building on this, the diary will be delivered online through a digital diary, an informative and interactive website, a printable scrapbook for kids to complete, and an iPad magazine.

 The diary contains positive stories about kids living sustainably, teacher resources, and activities to put environmental learning into action.

 Think + share + act = change.
