After a long absence from posting, due to the busy schedule I have had at work and the work that I have been doing on my syllabus, I have new updates to make.
I have completed my work on my syllabus... My aim for the end of this academic year was to have a complete scheme of work, which largely meets the aims and requirements if the 2014 curriculum. I wanted to write a single a4 page for each of the units of work that stated a rough teaching sequence and my expectations about what that pupils will get from the lessons.
I have done this and am very pleased with what I have created. It is stored online at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/c3l5yb2vh758se6/AABK8Wj-eohEQNeUDt3nczMxa.
The next step is to prepare for a new job and new requirements from my teaching. I have to now extend my planning to include years 7&8 which I have not taught for a while and for whom the changes to the curriculum are considerable.
