Composite Year 4/5 HASS Units- Australian Curriculum

Includes update to version 9 of the Australian Curriculum in addition to a version for 8.4. ✓ Editable Unit Planner ✓ Grading Guide ✓ Editable PowerPoint ✓ Worksheets ✓ Success Criteria/Learning Intentions

This is a pack of 4 units (9 lessons each) that address ALL the Year 4 and 5 HASS outcomes from the Australian Curriculum. Units for both version 8.4 and version 9 of the Australian Curriculum have been included.

✩ These units are for teacher who need to fit both Year 4 and 5 outcomes into a single 1 hour HASS unit each week.

✩ This pack is NOT for teachers who teach a straight Year 4 or 5 class. Due to having to condense all the outcomes these units do not go in to each concept in as much detail as you should when you have a straight year level classroom. You can find individual units here

Version 9 Units are:

• Civics and Citizenship: Students explore the government and their local community including laws, rules, groups and roles of citizens and elected representatives.
• First Nations Australians and the Environment: Students explore the culture of First Nations Australians and the effects of contact. Students explore influences on the environment and the management of the Australian environment.
• Geography and Economics: Students examine different types of environments and resources, how they are used and how they are sustained.
• History: Students learn about the First Fleet and colonial life in Australia including significant people, groups and events.

✩ Each unit has 10 lessons designed to be taught over a term and contains all lesson resources including worksheets and posters.
