This is a perfect time saver for you and your classroom. Have smooth transitions between lessons.

Please note: due to copyright licensing, little prep may be required on your part as I am not able to insert all resources into the teaching slides. I will provide prompts within the slides to ensure you know exactly what resources need to be inserted and on what slides to ensure that the flow of your lesson is fluid and seamless.

This resource is made in Google slides. They are PowerPoint compatible, however converting it to PowerPoint may cause warping or alignment issues. These can be rectified manually. Major issues may include:

• Font - Google Education Foundation font has been used. Download font here.

• Text box alignment issues may occur. To rectify, you will need to click on the text box, then select the paragraph line spacing option and change to 0 pt spacing before and after.

What's Included:

• An entire teaching slide with interactive and thought provoking lesson content.

• Links to online interactive games to enhance student engagement.

• Educational videos and songs attached and linked within the slides.

• Learning Intentions and Success Criteria.

This is just one of many for the entire year!!!

Take the stress out of planning and organising. Walk into your classroom feeling organised and prepared to teach your lesson.

About the slide setup for Multi Age Units:

As this is a multi age unit, often parts of the lessons or resources are relevant to either Stage 2 or Stage 3.

To make this discrete, or easier to identify, I have used the following animals to assist.

• The koala icon identifies all Stage 2 content and resources. It was chosen as it is an animal that climbs height of the trees, yet also journeys back down to the ground on occasion. This symbolises building on the groundwork and foundations of Maths to develop deeper knowledge and understanding. Therefore, Stage 2 concepts will be identified by the Koala.

• The kookaburra icon identifies all Stage 3 content and resources. It was chosen as it is an animal that flies to new heights but also rests on branches of the trees at times. It symbolises extending on what they know, but also coming back to the foundations they were taught to consolidate their learning and then build upon it. Therefore, Stage 3 concepts will be identified by the Kookaburra.

References and materials covered throughout are specifically stated/attributed within the teaching slides.
