* DECD Australian Curriculum: Geography resources worth a look! 

DECD in South Australia has recently launched their "Making the Australian Curriculum work for us' resource to support the teaching and learning of the Australian Curriculum: Geography. The DECD site has a range of geographical bits and pieces referenced in this blog posting. They are certainly worth a look! 

As you can see below the resource includes a creative animation, a Bringing it to Life (BitL tool) and broadsheets on the curriculum.
