Abercorn students are learning the Australian Curriculum Mathematics, English, Science, HASS, Design & Digital Technologies, Health & Physical Education and The Arts. A specialist teacher from Monto visits weekly to teach Japanese.
Our school prides itself on using the Age Appropriate Pedagogies approaches and principles to deliver the curriculum. This means students are actively engaged which in turn creates a love of learning.
For English, we use the structured literacy approach for the V9 of the Australian Curriculum, with a focus on phonics, reading, writing, comprehension, vocabulary, phonemic awareness and spelling.
In Mathematics we are teaching V9 of the Australian Curriculum with students learning with daily reviews, hands on lessons with concrete materials, ICTs, open-ended tasks and fluency activities.
