Part of our literacy focus was vocabulary! Really enjoyed teaching this unit about natural disasters.. so many great books available that helps us understand the impact of these catastrophic events (and also what we can do to minimise it!)

Concord West PS have hosted a theatre company that built a yurt to perform a play about refugee children. The installation led to many unique learning opportunities for the students. It isnāt every day that you get to have a yurt in your hall!

Iām very biased towards EALD, as you know š In my own āUtopiaā, and this is acknowledging the current teacher shortage, our EALD colleagues would not be used as ācasualsā and the EALD programs continue to run and are supported in EVERY school every single day so that weāre able to support hundreds of EALD Ss, inc those from refugee b/grounds. Wearing my .@ATESOLNSW as current President, Iām also looking forward to upcoming meetings bet ATESOL Council members & @pruecar to discuss the National EALD Roadmap š šš¼ #tesoloz #aussieEd
