Unit Success Criteria and DifferentiationHow will you know you students have succeeded?
Differentiation: CONTENT PROCESS PRODUCT
and ENVIRONMENT
‘C’ Year Level Achievement Standard – Success Criteria(Refer to GTMJ and relevant content descriptors (AAP) – including prior content – previous levels)Foundation to Year 2 Achievement StandardBy the end of Year 2, students describe the purpose of familiar products, services and environments and how they meet the needs of users and affect others and environments. They identify the features and uses of technologies for each of the prescribed technologies contexts.With guidance, students create designed solutions for each of the prescribed technologies contexts. They describe given needs or opportunities. Students create and evaluate their ideas and designed solutions based on personal preferences. They communicate design ideas for their designed products, services and environments using modelling and simple drawings. Following sequenced steps, students demonstrate safe use of tools and equipment when producing designed solutions.Knowledge & Understanding of Design Technologies:
Describes the purpose of farms and how they meet the needs of users. Identifies uses of technologies for food and fibre production.
Design & Technologies Processes and Production Skills Describes a problem on a farm and creates designed solutions for food or fibre production. Communicates design ideas using simple drawings. Follows sequenced steps and demonstrates safe use of tools and equipment when making a food item. Evaluates design ideas based on personal preferences.
‘B’ Standard – Success Criteria(Refer to GTMJ and relevant content descriptors)Knowledge & Understanding of Design Technologies:
Explains how technologies meet animal and plant needs.Design & Technologies Processes and Production Skills
Communicates design ideas appropriate to identified problems. Sequences steps logically and works collaboratively. Compares ideas.
‘A’ Standard – Success Criteria(Refer to GTMJ and relevant content descriptors + above)Knowledge & Understanding of Design Technologies:
Explains how farms meet the needs of our society.Design & Technologies Processes and Production Skills:
Explains problems that affect farms. Communicates a detailed design idea that uses relevant technology. Uses tools and materials skilfully to make fruit salad considering presentation. Justifies best idea.
Support Plan or ICP Adjusted Content – Refer to ICPStudents:

Maker Model Guiding Questions
Content What students need to learn (Select focus questions as required)
Can I choose a familiar context to help make connections or will I scaffold to broaden student world knowledge?
What links can I make to real life? Can I change the context to match student
interests? What prior learning experiences are required? How will I know what students already know?
Which data? Will students complete a Pre-test? Can I skim over some of the content or miss it
completely? How will I extend those students who already
have this knowledge? Will I accelerate students?
Process How students learn (Select focus questions as required)
Can I tier the activities around concepts and skills to provide different levels of support or opportunities to demonstrate deeper knowledge?
Do I need to vary the length of time students require to grasp a concept either by compacting the curriculum or extending the timeframe?
Can I provide opportunities for students to construct and demonstrate knowledge using digital resources and technologies?
Can I scaffold activities or break larger tasks down into smaller tasks?
Can I provide study guides or graphic organisers for targeted students?
Can I modify delivery modes for individuals or small groups?
Can I use peer tutoring?
ProductHow students demonstrate what they know (Select focus questions as required)
To complete the scheduled assessment task will some students require more/less time?
Can students be extended by communicating the information in a more challenging way? E.g. change to authentic audience
Are there students who need the assessment task to be broken down for them?
Will some students need adjustments to the task e.g. having concrete materials at hand or access to digital technologies?
Will some students need feedback provided more frequently or in a different manner?
Environment How learning is structured (Select focus questions as required)
Which of a range of flexible groupings: whole class, small group and individual, best suits this concept and skill set?Have I offered a range of materials and resources -including ICT's to reflect student diversity?Can I vary the level of class teacher support for some students?Would activities outside the classroom best suit this concept? E.g. Other learning spaces within the school, excursions, campsWhat routines can I put into place to assist students in developing independent and group work skills?What class structures can be modified e.g. team teaching or shared teaching and timetabling?Are there additional support provisions from specialist, teacher aide, mentor etc.?Can I provide visual cues for students e.g. content posters or list of instructions for students to follow?

Post Moderation “Every Student Succeeding”
Objective: Develop professional knowledge and practice (Refer to Pialba state School Moderation and Reporting Policy)
Moderation ProtocolsRefer Appendix of Pialba State School Reporting and Moderation (pre-post) School Policy – Social Moderation Norms.
Moderation of Completed HASS Assessment Samples Refer Appendix of School Policy – Making judgements using standards.
Previously agreed criteria (Pre Moderation) A-E given using the GTMJ On balance teacher judgement- poles Start at the C Move up or down according to the evidence in the sample. The achievement standard is the C standard. Compare each student sample to the standard not against other student samples Give an A-E grade for the task This sample will become part of the student’s portfolio of work
