LEARNING ESSENTIALS

(BY INVITATION)

HOD Mrs Simonetta Cesamolo Place of Course N/A

Course Description

Learning Essentials is an alternative elective for students who may need some extra assistance with their learning or extra time to complete work due to their individual circumstances. Students work with a member of the Diverse Learning team in a small group setting where individual and group assistance is offered regarding planning and executing assessment tasks, organisational skills, goal setting and development of literacy skills.

As a result of small class sizes, the teacher is able to work in pairs or individually with each student in the class. The teacher models, guides and then encourages the students to work independently. This level of support is aimed at preparing students for stage 6 where they will be required to implement these work habits, study skills and strategies autonomously.
