Standard 1

Throughout my professional learning experiences I managed to create and

design lessons, activities and resources to engage all students and support
diversity. As a part of my professional experience III, I planned and modified a
lesson to differentiate my teaching to meet the specific needs of the learners
(1.5). This lesson also included strategies to support full participation of all
students particularly one boy with autism (1.6). During my experiences I allowed
time to build and develop professional relationships with my students to ensure I
knew my students; their likes and dislikes. (1.1, 1.3)It also provided me with
knowledge of how each child learnt and what differentiation I could apply (1.2). I
have been able to demonstrate professional knowledge and understanding of
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and studies. In order to effectively
create a successful learning program, teachers must know their students and
how they learn (1.1, 1.2).
