School name Unit title Duration of unit: Our school Migration to Australia 10 hours
Unit outline Through this unit, students explore stories of migration and the reason behind migration for many families from overseas. They will study the details and events provided in these real-life stories and take note of them. Students will analyse given texts as well as researching their own. Students will also learn how to create their own recount of a migration story. They will base this recount on the information they have gathered and something original they have created themselves. They are able to gain ideas and information from previously analysed texts and research. The next part of this unit is the persuasive text section. Students will analyse and create their own persuasive texts from the 1800s and 1900s. They will then be able to create a persuasive advertisement to convince foreigners to migrate to Australia. Inquiry Questions: - What is migration? - Who migrated to Australia? - Why did they migrate to Australia? What are their reasons? - What would Australia be like today if people didnt migrate? - How do people share their stories? - Why did Australia want people to move here from overseas?

Queensland Studies Authority January 2012 | 7 Australian Curriculum Achievement standard (ACARA, 2012) ENGLISH: Year 5 Achievement Standard Receptive modes (listening, reading and viewing) By the end of Year 5, students explain how text structures assist in understanding the text. They understand how language features, images and vocabulary influence interpretations of characters, settings and events. They analyse and explain literal and implied information from a variety of texts. They describe how events, characters and settings in texts are depicted and explain their own responses to them. They listen and ask questions to clarify content. Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating) Students use language features to show how ideas can be extended. They develop and explain a point of view about a text, selecting information, ideas and images from a range of resources. Students create a variety of sequenced texts for different purposes and audiences. They make presentations and contribute actively to class and group discussions, taking into account other perspectives. When writing, they demonstrate understanding of grammar, select specific vocabulary and use accurate spelling and punctuation, editing their work to provide structure and meaning. HISTORY: Year 5 Achievement Standard By the end of Year 5, students identify the causes and effects of change on particular communities, and describe aspects of the past that remained the same. They describe the different experiences of people in the past. They describe the significance of people and events in bringing about change. Students sequence events and people (their lifetime) in chronological order, using timelines. When researching, students develop questions to frame an historical inquiry. They identify a range of sources and locate and record information related to this inquiry. They examine sources to identify points of view. Students develop, organise and present their texts, particularly narratives and descriptions, using historical terms and concepts.

This theme was produced by taking the students interest into consideration. Their interests stem from reading the book My Place by Nadia Wheatley. One particular theme discussed within this book is families who migrated to Australia for many different reasons. There are history aspects in every lesson, however; some lessons are used to explicitly teach English content. The main content descriptor for History is: The reasons people migrated to Australia from Europe and Asia, and the experiences and contributions of a particular migrant group within a colony.

Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating) - Students use language features to show how ideas can be extended. - They develop and explain a point of view about a text, selecting information, ideas and images from a range of resources. - Students contribute actively to class and group discussions, taking into account other perspectives. - When writing, they demonstrate understanding of grammar, select specific vocabulary and use accurate spelling and punctuation - Editing their work to provide structure and meaning. Explicit teaching of English will happen in lessons 3, 5 and 6. This teaching includes how to write a recount as well as persuasive writing. There are two main pieces of assessment throughout this unit of work. These include both formative and summative The formative assessment involves the students ability to use knowledge acquired in class to write a recount of their own based on an immigrant that they have created. The summative piece of assessment is a persuasive advertisement which needs to persuade people overseas to migrate to Australia in the 1920s. All technical aspects of writing will be assessed such as text structure, vocabulary, grammar and punctuation as well as the creativity used to create these pieces of writing assessing their originality, recount effectiveness and persuasive effectiveness. The scope of years from the My Place text is around 1928. The scope of migrant stories being looked at, range from late 1800s to early 1900s. The persuasive advertisement they will create as summative assessment is focussed in on the 1920s as related to in the book. Formative: The main piece of formative assessment is a recount that will be marked. This will be marked using a checklist based on aspects discussed within class. (Appendix 5) Worksheets will also be collected at the end of each lesson to observe the students contribution, accuracy of answers and understanding of content. Summative: Persuasive advertisement to persuade foreigners to migrate to Australia in the 1920s. This will be marked using a rubric (Appendix 6) - students use correct text structure (as much as they can in an advertisement) - writing is fluent and cohesive - correct punctuation, spelling, grammar etc. - correct vocabulary - creativeness - overall presentation of advertisement - ICT capability

Queensland Studies Authority January 2012 | 23 Use feedback Ways to monitor learning and assessment Teachers meet to collaboratively plan the teaching, learning and assessment to meet the needs of all learners in each unit. Teachers create opportunities for discussion about levels of achievement to develop shared understandings; co-mark or cross mark at key points to ensure consistency of judgments; and participate in moderating samples of student work at school or cluster level to reach consensus and consistency. Feedback to students Teachers strategically plan opportunities and ways to provide ongoing feedback (both written and informal) and encouragement to children/students on their strengths and areas for improvement. Children/Students reflect on and discuss with their teachers or peers what they can do well and what they need to improve. Teachers reflect on and review learning opportunities to incorporate specific learning experiences and provide multiple opportunities for children to experience practise and improve.
Reflection on the unit plan Identify what worked well during and at the end of the unit, including: activities that worked well and why activities that could be improved and how assessment that worked well and why assessment that could be improved and how common student misconceptions that need, or needed, to be clarified.
