Thank you, slides are great. Saved me loads of time!
The new Maths units are such a time saver - I am purchasing the new units as fast as they are being released! Thanks for giving me my time back!
This resource is beautifully and carefully created, however, I was expecting it to correlate with the department's unit with the same title. By itself, it is a great unit, but since I had already purchased the resources from the dept unit, I have chosen to go just with that one and possibly dip into the honey bee resources to complement what I already have. A little disappointed, not with the quality but the connection to the Dept Units.
Hello
Thank you for your feedback. I am genuinely sorry to hear that the resource did not meet your expectations.
I do feel disappointed by the two star rating, particularly as you noted that the issue was not with the quality of the resource itself, but rather that it was not aligned with the NSW Department of Education Sample Units.
I would like to clarify that this resource was never advertised as being aligned with the Sample Units. The title, thumbnail, preview and product description do not reference the Science Sample Units. The product description clearly states that the unit was independently written by me and aligns with the NSW Science Syllabus outcomes only. It also specifies that the unit contains 10 lessons, whereas the Sample Units are structured as 16 plus 4 lessons.
When the new KLA syllabus was first released, it was uncertain whether the Department would provide Sample Units. In response, I created original unit plans based on the suggested scope and sequence so that teachers would have materials available to support implementation of the new syllabus. Once it was later confirmed that Sample Units would be developed, I ceased writing independent units and shifted my focus to creating resources that directly align with those units.
While the majority of my store now offers resources that explicitly align with the Sample Units, I do still provide some independently written units. Any resource that aligns with a Sample Unit is clearly labelled in the title, thumbnail and product description as directly aligning or complementing a specific NSW Science Sample Unit.
For this reason, it is disheartening to receive a rating that reflects alignment preferences rather than the quality or accuracy of the content. I have made every effort to ensure that product information is clear and transparent so that teachers can make informed purchasing decisions.
I hope you have a lovely evening.
I love the presentation of these slides, and I especially love the planning time they save me.
These packs are amazing - align completely with the NSW maths Syllabus, are such a time saver and are beautifully put together - I personally love the CALM colours.
