This document provides guidance for creating a 6-week unit plan for a Year 5 English class. The unit plan should include a rationale justifying the context, curriculum design, assessment choices and reporting strategies from a Christian worldview. It should include one summative assessment task and resources to support teaching and learning. The plan should demonstrate understanding of unit plan components and include scaffolding, key questions, authentic connections between sections, and an appendix with resources like a letter to parents and student task sheet with rubric.

1. Creating a unit plan for year 5 English
Prepare a 6-week unit plan for a primary years (year 5) context using the unit plan format,
including some required classroom resources for teaching, learning and assessment. Your
rationale should include a justification of:• the context and• the curriculum design and
educational theories of curriculum, assessment and reporting selected from a personal,
professional and Christ-centred, Bible-based worldview and• assessment choices, strategies
and tools (pre-assessment, formal and informal feedback, and summative) and rubrics for
making judgements and • the inclusive practices for student developmental needs and• the
range of strategies for reporting to students/carers, and• the purpose of keeping accurate
and reliable records of student achievement Students should engage with the process of
thinking about and planning one unit of work. This unit plan is to be clearly focused on one
core concept or enduring understanding related to a chosen learning area/subject and must
include at least one summative assessment task. The plan will cover six weeks of year 5
classroom time for the selected subject.You are to submit a completed unit plan including:•
assessment task sheet and guide to making judgements (rubric) for this task for students •
teaching and learning resources necessary to scaffold one of your phases (photos may be
necessary: please be aware that to assist with uploading to Turnitin, you may need to use a
photo capture system such as ‘snipping tool’ or PDF photos to reduce file sizes) • at least
one resource is to be included that provides differentiated options for students (This may
mean you develop two different worksheets, or the resource has layered options for
students). Please label this resource in your Appendix as- Differentiated resource. This unit
plan should be a demonstration of best practice in planning and assessing for learning. This
unit plan should demonstrate your understanding of the various components of the plan
and you should focus your attention on:a. understanding what should be included in each
section of the plan – knowledge, skills & values & the application of knowledge, skills &
values (Consider: how does the Christian perspective authentically develop in your plan?
This may be through questioning, the assessment task or reflective assessment);b.
appropriate scaffolding and assessment for learning;c. the inclusion of Key Questions
throughout each activity;d. developing authentic and meaningful connections between the
different sections; e. including the name and reference of relevant resources that would be
used but not produced; f. the inclusion of an appendix identifying resources (including
differentiated resources) that were produced to support this plan including: a letter to
parents/carers to communicate the intent of the unit and assessment task; a student task
sheet for the assessment/unit with a rubric or guide to making your judgement Please write
