Mentor Monday #6: Analysing Argument

22/7/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
I work as a high school teacher and teach across four subject areas: English, English as an Additional Language, Humanities and Creative Writing. I have been teaching for six years and each year is getting easier, mostly because I have now taught across all year levels 7-10 and subject areas and have created resources to support my teaching.

In the first five years of teaching more than 50% of teachers leave the teaching profession. I came dangerously close to becoming a part of this statistic after numerous burn outs throughout my first four years. I want to do something to change this and so every Monday I will be a mentor by sharing my teaching resources and classroom tips.​

Creating resources is where I get to put to use my creativity and my writing background and I want them to have a larger audience. Feel free to share, use and adapt my resources. 

Analysing Argument

I developed this unit on Analysing Argument analysing anti-bullying ads. I have used these resources, with different topics, for year 7 English and year 8 English as an Additional Language.
