Summarising My Place by Nadia Wheatley HASS

My Place by Nadia Wheatley is such a rich text that supports so many aspects of the HASS Curriculum across Australia. This resource encourages students to engage deeply with the text and the revolving cast of characters as they practice the Reading Strategy of summarising. Give your students the choice of residents to present or direct them to certain characters, depending on your focus. Extend your students to compare and contrast the various residents or for younger students, they may want to include their own family information in one of the houses! Students could use the PDF to respond electronically or you may wish to print the PDF for student design and for classroom display. This resource makes integrating English and HASS a breeze!
