New Curriculum resources... Yippee!!

English Online have launched their new resource site to help us out with getting our teeth into the new curriculum - here's the link

Enhancing English - New Curriculum Resource

I suggest you bookmark it and read it every day over the holidays!!!!

Curriculum Assistance Online

At the HOD conference I attended today there were a number of links/resources/papers discussed that will be of use to us as a department when we come to look at implementing the new curriculum.

Levels 2, 4, 6, 8 have been 'unpacked' on the English Online link here - http://english.unitecnology.ac.nz/enhancingtheenglishcurriculum/

It provides definitions, links to current resources and will eventually (hopefully) cover all levels of the curriculum.

The New Curriculum

Here's a link to the new curriculum online support site -

It's worth having a look around if you have the time.....
