How to use these educational modules
Each educational module includes complete educational information, activity sheets, evaluation and assessment forms and details of how each module links with the Education Queensland Curricula (Core Learning Outcomes, Strands and Processes etc). Each can be used as a complete educational module or as the basis to develop your own activities.
How were the modules graded?
Each educational module indicates the specific target grade range for which the lesson was developed. However, it is possible to use the structure and basic information of the activity to create a module a to suit a slightly different grade.
Educational modules by subject
Teaching professionals may choose to re-purpose the valuable information and structure of these activities to suit a different grade or other end use. You can search by subject to find materials which may be useful to your own activities.
