Prior Learning:
Students have spent the previous 6
weeks of Term 2 learning about
World War 1 and have completed 2
Summative Assessments (CATs).
Each class of Year 9s (3 & 11) have students with
learning and/or behavioral difficulties. The implication
of this is that more attention and scaffolding is required
for these students. The teacher must be careful not to
pay too much attention to the detriment of the other
students.
