Elaborations
  • working with a partner to create a visual resource that promotes Auslan as an important subject choice
  • working in groups to create a series of promotional resources for the school website
  • organising and participating in visits by respected members of the Deaf community to their school to share knowledge and to promote Auslan skills in the wider community
  • planning presentations to showcase aspects of Deaf culture likely to be unfamiliar to the hearing community
  • reporting on and evaluating completed events or activities that they had planned together, for example:
    FIRST PRO1 DOUBT I-F WILL GO-WELL, HAVE-A-LOOK GO-ALONG GOOD
    At the start, I wasn’t sure it would work, but after a while I thought it went well.
    PRO1 WRONG NEVER AGAIN DO SAME
    I won’t do that ever again.
  • following sequenced directions that involve the use of practical information, for example:
    SEE DS:wavy-surface, KNOW WHERE SCRATCH? S-A-N-D POLISH MORE DS:thick-to-thin 2MM SMOOTH
    See where the surface is uneven? You sand that back 2 mm and it gets smooth.
  • working in pairs to create instructional or procedural texts that demonstrate and explain activities
  • planning and presenting a cultural item for a school open day, such as celebration through drama or visual story of an important member of the Deaf community
  • discussing in pairs possible design options for an item such as language flag, artefact or logo that incorporates elements of significance to the Deaf community, presenting reasons for specific design suggestions, then voting as a class on a preferred design
