Here is a photo that I took of a water tank that washed up on Burwood beach after the recent #NSWFloods. This is another great example of how rubbish can end up in the ocean and can be carried by the currents. #uonteach

I will be using various books about the ocean in my 'Life below water' unit plan. Books are always a great way to incorporate literacy into a unit plan. There are many ways that you can use books when it comes to designing lesson plans. #sdg14 #UONteach

I will be using DeBono's 6 thinking hats in my unit plan. It is a great way to get students thinking critically. What pedagogical practices will you guys be using in your unit plans? Edward de Bono: Six Thinking Hats Provide Strong Stimulus for Ideation mgrush.com/blog/debono-si…

@LukeUon I agree @lukeUon. It is important to keep an emphasis on Australia's economic and environmental interests and assets such as the Great barrier reef and the Murray Darling river.

Do you think #Australians are doing enough to protect their oceans? #Educ4750 #sdg14

@GrottNicholas Thanks for including Indigenous perspectives into your lesson sequence. It is super important to do this

Including Aboriginal perspectives in a lesson sequnce on sustainability give great perspective on how we can change our consumption. #uonteach #Educ4750 parksaustralia.gov.au/marine/pub/wor…

@GrottNicholas What a great video! full of information and a great way to engage visual learners.

I found this great video that provides an overview of content for future teachers planning on teaching #SDG14 #uonteach #educ4750 youtube.com/watch?v=u75w75…

i think twitter has shadow banned me for posting spam ahahhahahah lol

@IanRP99 here is a link to their schools program tuckerbush.com.au/schools-progra…

Have a read of this article from the ABC. It is a bit confronting but full of really great information. #Educ4750 #sdg14 Plastic and how it affects our oceans abc.net.au/news/science/2…

@Oliviacowieuon1 What a great ICT resource. It is important to make local connections when learning about global topics. What we do here in Newcastle can have a global effect.

#AUSMAP has created an interactive hotspot map to identify where #microplastics have been found in #Australia. This is an excellent tool for student research into #Marine #pollution. I will be implementing this tool within my integrated project research. ausmap.org/hotspot-map

A great way to incorporate literacy into the unit of work!

I absolutely love this resource. It has so many ideas on how to includes global goals into your classroom in a genuine and authentic way!

@NicholShari @globaledau Couldn't agree more. Thanks for sharing.

Attn: #EDUC4750 teachers #UoNTeach Do yourself a favour and explore the 'Thinking Globally' resource from @globaledau So many great ideas on how to integrate global ideas into the classroom authentically and details activities, images and pedgogies. globaleducation.edu.au

@joewillisss struck the jackpot here. This resource has 9 games and activities that all relate to #sdg14. Some of the games such as 'beachcombers bingo' have real-world outcomes such as students going to their local beach to collect rubbish. #Educ4750

@joewillisss wow! beachcombers bingo looks great!

Just found this fantastic resource online that contains various interactive activities regarding taking action against plastic pollution. It also contains downloadable content for in-class worksheets to use in lessons! #UoNTeach #sdg14 exxpedition.com/8-games-activi…

Thanks for sharing. What a great idea! I just hope all my students have access to a smart device.

This is an awesome resource with very accurate information. I think i will be using this in my unit planning

I think we can learn a lot from Indigenous cultural knowledge. Let me know if you plan to include Indigenous perspectives into your unit plan

Indigenous Australians have sustainably managed a symbiotic relationship with the ocean for thousands and thousands of years. Here is an amazing resource that explains indigenous peoples relationship with the sea #Educ4750 #sdg14 parksaustralia.gov.au/marine/pub/wor…
