Description
About This Book
The seven General Capabilities are one dimension of the Australian Curriculum and are taught through the content of the Learning Areas. They involve knowledge, skills, behaviour and dispositions. This Targeting General Capabilities book examines and assesses two of them for years 3 and 4:
Inquiring, exploring and organising information and ideas
Generating ideas, possibilities and actions
Reflecting on thinking and processes
Analysing, synthesising and evaluating reasoning and procedures.
Understanding ethical concepts and issues
Reasoning in decision-making and actions
Exploring values, rights and responsibilities.
Critical Thinking
Children learn to generate and evaluate knowledge, clarify concepts and ideas, seek possibilities, consider alternatives and solve problems. The elements explored in this book are:
Ethical Understanding
Children learn to identify and investigate the nature of ethical concepts, values and character traits, and understand how reasoning can assist ethical judgement. The elements explored in this book are:
Each unit begins with a stimulus, supported by activities that examine the element through the different Learning Areas. Self-reflection is encouraged for students to explore what they have learnt and to record their thoughts.
The assessments are tailored to the sub-elements, rather than through the lens of specific Learning Areas, thereby consolidating students' understanding of the concepts and providing guidance for further reflection.
ACARA codes are provided for each unit, linking the activities across the curriculum. Answers for all activities are in the back of the book.
