Work samples

This portfolio of student work shows that the student can identify and describe with detail important dates and changes in the student’s own life (WS5, WS6). The student explains how specific aspects of daily life have changed over recent time while others have remained the same (WS2, WS3, WS4). The student identifies and describes with detail the features of places and their location at a local scale (WS1) and identifies changes to the features of places (WS7). The student recognises that people describe the features of places differently (WS8) and describes how places can be cared for (WS1, WS7). 

The student responds to questions about the recent past and familiar and unfamiliar places by collecting and interpreting information and data from observations and from sources provided (WS6). The student sequences personal and family events in order (WS5) and accurately represents the location of different places and their features on labelled maps (WS8). The student reflects on learning to suggest ways to care for places (WS1, WS7). The student shares stories about the past (WS4), and presents observations and findings using everyday terms to denote the passing of time and to describe direction and location (WS2, WS5, WS8).
