@ArnikaMac @whasupfromfi @soundofsugar And you can come to some F2F PD here socialstudiesnz.org/events

There’s a new history curriculum coming out in New Zealand. Has any teachers received any professional development or guidance on what and how to teach it? I’ve had ZERO. #edchatnz #edutwitter #education

@ArnikaMac @whasupfromfi @soundofsugar Yes! The NZHTA has a series of online zooms are already underway! All NZ principals were emailed the link and the ASSEN middle leadership course has some focus on ANZHC. More PLD being rolled out as year! Make sure you follow the Aotearoa Histories Teachers FB page

@ArnikaMac @khooker33 What a great looking team! Full time facilitators, part time models

@AucklandUni This is just fantastic! I would love to see some ideas around secondary learning too.

In response to COVID-19, a project to support primary school teachers with a rich, arts-based resource when they return to school has been developed by a team at the Faculty of Education and Social Work. bit.ly/2VAO4ce

@somegoodnews @johnkrasinski This is our Prime Minister - who during her national briefing eased kids fears, saying the Easter Bunny & Tooth Fairy would be able to visit while we are in our Level 4 Lockdown

@ArnikaMac Oh yay! Will do :)

@ArnikaMac do you know any teachers/schools who are using #TeachSDGs well to help structure curriculum - particularly in Social Studies?

@ArnikaMac @khooker33 @mrkempnz Looks amazing!

@harcoumich Terrifying!

@WhaeaJo @harcoumich What a great idea. I was toying with the idea of using it as a 1.2 topic, but perspectives could be much more interesting!

@WhaeaJo @harcoumich How fantastic! Am going to be getting some of these

@harcoumich @larahearnrollo @hamish_keith Perhaps rather than compulsion of the subject matter, compulsion of robust PLD to ensure all teachers understand the value of teaching local history, build their confidence & empower all teachers to positively engage our students in our past should to be promoted more.

Shameful hardly touches on the tragedy of a country that does not teach its own history If you don’t where you have been You don’t know where you are If you don’t know where you are you have no idea where you are going

@ArnikaMac @ratafoundation1 @lindatame @EducationGovtNZ An amazing achievement!

What is the primary purpose of education — to forge better human beings or to teach the curriculum? Don’t let anyone tell you it’s the latter. #TeachSDGs

@langley277 A great read! We are trying to do something similar with our Jrn Sst atm. Interesting that your 4 big ideas are near identical to the 5 we can up with. 5th being conceptual understanding.

Here is a blog sharing my approach to redesign the way I teach and lead the Social Science curriculum. My aim is for student learning to be skills driven not driven by NCEA standards. Thoughts? #edchatnz #NCEAreview langley277.home.blog/2018/08/01/shi…

Yr 9s brainstorming their responses for #EdConvo18 survey. Great chance to practise formal writing in an authentic context which encourages them to have a say!
