    “We Are Going” a poem written by the famous Oodgeroo Noonuccal is in its own way a masterpiece for communication to the present world about the impact of modernisation on the Indigenous people of Australia. If anything, Oodgeroo expresses the reality of the fading of the Aboriginals and expresses the sadness and pain that follows. The constant use of the word “We” in this poem creates the sense that Oodgeroo is not at all speaking for herself. She is speaking for the entire Indigenous population.…

    The 11th graders have completed reading and analyzing Langston Hughes's poem “Theme for English B” and have drafted informal narrative responses that required them to -- like Hughes did -- write a page about themselves. Their piece had to have structure, be one page long, and focus on their past, present, and future, as they ultimately connect themselves to the poem’s theme.…

    To what extent are culturally diverse literacies such as dance, storytelling, nature, music, etc., used to elaborate on academic literacies?
This question is important, because, as we as a profession learn more about scaffolding, we learn it is extremely important to play off of prior knowledge bases, and treat others with respect. However, aboriginals around the world seem to often not have this empathetic understanding applied towards them. By exploring this questions we discover more ways in which culturally diverse literacies can be used to elaborate on academic literacies, and by building a greater repertoire of ways in which we can incorporate these literacies when opportunities appropriately present themselves.…

    When designing and creating the teaching episodes, I linked to curriculum which acknowledged Indigenous students to ensure my lessons were inclusive and appropriate for all students. These include: EATSIPS, ACARA and 8 ways. The Australian Curriculum addresses two needs in Indigenous education which are students are able to see themselves, their identities and culture in each key learning areas, and cross-curriculum priority is designed so all students can respect and recognise the world’s oldest continuous living culture (REFERENCE). When teaching creating lessons, it is important to know the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders culture, displayed through language, experiences and ways of life. EATSIPS consists of three elements that work together to create a strong school and community culture. These include personal reflection, whole-school ethos and classroom ethos (REFERENCE). This framework helps students create a strong sense of self-identity, pride and how to respond to negative…

    creatively express thoughts, feelings and knowledge has been proven therapeutic and important for self-development. By engaging in artistic endeavour, students also learn why TSI people created art. In our world, it is not difficult to see aboriginals being mistreated not only in Australia but in other parts of the world (i.e. Canada). It is important for students to understand that as we grow and develop, and as the Indigenous population in Australia increases, we will have to take measures to ensure that this population has the resources they need.…

Poetry is about expression, it's about showing your point of view, and your intake on the world's aspects. These poems were developed through specific analyzation by many different artists. By learning these new poems, we pretty are now pretty much culturally rich.…
