Perform fundamental movement skills in a
variety of movement sequences and situations (ACPMP025)
This could be a way to encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander family members to support the design and making of an Early Years Maths Garden. Place numbered stepping stones in
sequence around a bush tucker garden.

So many tasks to link to Maths content and concepts with links to local Aboriginal culture.

The BTN video is a great way of introducing the concept to students. My daughters love BTN as I'm sure many students do.

I also found the Murri Maths Connecting to Country preso very useful. This would be great to use for school staff inservices, meetings, info sessions; and for supporting the development of a bush tucker garden at the school.]]> 2022-03-26 06:38:56 UTC https://padlet.com/vitalityteaco/5pc93te45i3kx3de/wish/2114618029
