Abstract | Effective planning is an important part of meeting the learning needs of students in middle years classrooms. Yet this is a task with inherent complexity. It requires teachers to juggle the demands of curriculum, pedagogy and assessment, while considering short and long term goals and objectives, the diverse needs of students and relevant contextual factors. Additionally, teachers with a contemporary philosophy of middle years education often come together to cooperatively plan and teach a major project. This adds another layer of complexity as decisions have to be made about how to work collaboratively as a team. Because all teachers, regardless of their specialist teaching area, are teachers of literacy, expertise in planning for content learning as well as literacy learning is essential. |
