Assignment for SSE4100
Assignment
Part One: RATIONALE 1000 words
TASK: Students are to describe the philosophy underpinning a teaching and learning program for the HASS learning area. Include an explanation of the early childhood teaching and learning theory and pedagogical principles & practice that are reflected in the overall organisation and approach of a HASS program. Outline the way a HASS program utilises appropriate teaching and learning strategies and contexts to support learning in HASS.
It is an expectation that you will refer to cu
ent and relevant credible sources to support your rationale.
Part Two: INQUIRY UNIT PLAN for Pre primary 1500 words (template not included in word count)
TASK: Students are to choose one inquiry question from the following:
1.       Why does the weather change?
2.       Where do I Iive? (My community)
3.       Where did I come from? (My family)
 Students then need to:
1. Create a topic web to show initial planning ideas for your inquiry question across all learning areas in Pre primary. Take a photo of this and insert in your assignment.
2. Choose one aspect of your topic web that links to HASS and then create an inquiry overview plan using the template provided for pre primary. Your inquiry plan should:
- Show links to the HASS content descriptors for Pre Primary and Cross Cu
iculum Priorities from the WA cu
iculum.
- Reflect the Inquiry teaching cycle by describing one learning experience for each stage of tuning in, finding out, sorting out and taking action. (i.e. you will have 4 lessons)
- Show evidence of cross cu
iculum integration with literacy
- Outline the resources needed for each activity you have designed
- State how you will assess the learning experience for each step of the inquiry cycle
What is the word count for the SSE4100 assignment for the Rationale
The word count is 1000 words excluding direct quotations and in---text/end text referencing. A strict maximum of 1100 will be accepted without penalty including in---text referencing, direct quotations and characters. Submissions that are over this maximum will be penalised at 1% per 100 words. An introduction and conclusion should be provided and this is included as part of the total/overall word count. To keep within the maximum word count, students should not overuse direct quotations. Rather, students should synthesise ideas from readings and use their own expression to represent the ideas and then include an in---text reference to the source of the idea. How should the SSE4100 Written Assignment be presented?. • Format the assignment using 1.5 spacing and a simple size 12 type---faced font (Arial, Cali
i, Helvetica or Times New Roman.) • Include a ‘Title’ page with unit code, assignment title, your name and student number, due date and your total word count clearly indicated. • Use headings and sub---headings to clearly indicate each section of the report. • Use APA in---text and end---text referencing format and include an end---text reference page. • Include page numbers and a ‘header’ to each page with your name and student number.
