Literacy and Numeracy across the Primary Curriculum (Stage 2 and 3) - ECHE455

This unit focuses on literacy and numeracy across the primary curriculum, concentrating on stage 2 and stage 3. It develops students' understandings of the key learning areas of literacy and numeracy, and examines cross-curriculum areas. In the section on literacy, this unit will develop students' understanding of the structure of spoken, written and multimodal texts and their relationships to situational and socio-cultural contexts. In the section on numeracy students will focus on the development of skills needed to effectively teach a diverse range of learners. The links between literacy and numeracy, as well as differentiation of curriculum to meet the specific needs of learners, are also addressed.
