About core units

Core unit materials provide illustrations of practice for the stages of schooling:

• Years F–4
• Years 5–6
• Years 7–8 
• Years 9–10.

Three sections provide illustrations of classroom-ready ideas and resources linked to the F–10 Australian Curriculum: Geography: 

• 'Key understandings' provide illustrations of practice around the curriculum units and key themes for each year level.
• 'Inquiry and skills' support the geographical inquiry process emphasised in the new curriculum, linked to specific curriculum content descriptions.
• 'Exemplars' provide teachers with additional resources and illustrations of practice, linked to specific themes and curriculum content descriptions.

Each illustration is unique, and a variety of materials and styles are used. All illustrations provide information for teachers to support students' active engagement in learning.
