Content Descriptor

develop narratives and share observations, using sources, and subject-specific terms

Elaborations

  • • developing narratives drawing on ideas in sources, such as a comparison of past and present daily life
  • • sharing observations using sources such as how access to and use of a place has changed over time
  • • sharing with their teacher, other students and members of their family what they know about the past, using terms in speech and writing to denote the passing of time (for example, “in the past”, “years ago”, “the olden days”, “in the future”) and to describe direction and location of a place (for example, “north”, “south”, “opposite”, “near”, “far”)

Year 2 ASHASHASY2
Year 2 Humanities and Social Sciences Achievement Standard
By the end of Year 2, students identify the significance of a local person, group, place and/or building. They identify the effects of changes in technologies on people’s lives. Students identify that places can be spatially represented in different geographical divisions. They identify how people and places are interconnected both at local and broader scales. Students develop questions, and collect, sort and record related information and data from observations and provided sources. They interpret information and data, and identify and discuss perspectives. Students use interpretations to draw conclusions and make proposals. Students use sources, and subject-specific terms to present narratives and observations about the past, people and places at different scales.
