About the LOTE teaching guides
These teaching kits include everything you need to teach Auslan as a LOTE.
Each guide including 2 years of material!
They includes curriculum objectives and assessment material and a full class curricula for both years. Full sign lists for every topic, and for the whole curriculum by year.
Each learning topic includes
- A teachers reference dictionary for the topic, including hints on how to help students learn and remember each sign.
- Student handouts, games and activities
- Assessment tools
2nd year topics revise the year before, which is also beneficial for students new to the school, or when starting a Auslan LOTE program within a school.
Generally topics flow naturally from noun groups, into adjectives and verbs that relate to that noun, then into a Bring-It-Together topic that joins words to begin to form sentences and more elaborate communication (Eg Farm animals followed by colours, then into Bring-it-Together topic that sets up for description + noun combinations like pink pig)
As you work through the programs the Bring-It-Together topics are constantly drawing on past topics to extend and expand communication in more detailed ways.
