6. As teachers, we are facilitators!
It is our role to ensure that are teaching accommodates
the needs of the 30 different individual students in
our classroom.
A combination of catering for different learning abilities
and learning styles will guarantee that all students
are able to achieve the syllabus outcomes.
7. As teachers it is an important
part of our role to create
lessons that meet NSW
curriculum requirements
and it is important to
ensure that all students are
achieving these outcomes.
However, we must be aware
that each student will
achieve these outcomes at
different rates.
8. Although there are NSW curriculum
requirements it is important for
teachers to unpack the syllabus
outcomes when catering for the
needs of their different students.
Within each classroom there will be
lower ability students, medium
ability students and higher ability
students.
These varying ability groups can be
accommodated within the
classroom with simple
differentiation throughout the
lesson with instructions, scaffolding
and assigned task.
11. Similar to different
learning abilities, each
individual student has a
different learning style.
To maximise student
learning experiences the
teacher must ensure that
all students are able to
access the curriculum
and are engaged
throughout all lessons.
