Hi guys

Below is what I have written to post on the discussion board for other students to comment on. I will post it on Tuesday, so if you think it needs changing before then let me know.

Our 'group consisting of Melanie, Jodie, Georgia and I are basing our topic of work on the unit of work “Pack Your Bags” which is the study of immigration to Australia. This links to the Victoria Museums “Immigration to Victoria – a timeline” display. As a group we decided bon 5 lessons based on:'

 1.      Introduction 

 2.      What students what to find out 

 3.      Researching focus questions

'<span style="color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 8.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">Each of us is developing one lesson plan and then we are all contributing to the field trip. If anyone has suggestions or ideas, feedback would be appreciated. '<span style="color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 8.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: normal; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;"><span style="color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 8.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">Answering your question Melanie I think that the field trip would be to the museum to visit the exhibition.

<span style="color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 8.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">I am happy to do the lesson plan for the last lesson – reflection of what students learnt, if that is ok with everyone else. Jodie I think has started with the introduction lesson so that just leaves lessons 3,4 and the field trip.

<span style="color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 8.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">As for the planning template, I think we should keep it simple and use the second example of the lesson plan listed. What does everyone else think.
