Clothing

Summary of task

Students looked at photographs of clothing worn in the first half of the twentieth century. They were asked to find similar clothing which they subsequently wore for a full day at school. Students then responded to teacher questions on their likes and dislikes and how clothing has changed over time or remained the same. Student answers to these questions were scribed by the teacher and posted on the classroom noticeboard. The activity took place during class time over the course of one school day.

Achievement standard

By the end of Year 1, students identify and describe important dates and changes in their own lives. They explain how some aspects of daily life have changed over recent time while others have remained the same. They identify and describe the features of places and their location at a local scale and identify changes to the features of places. They recognise that people describe the features of places differently and describe how places can be cared for.

Students respond to questions about the recent past and familiar and unfamiliar places by collecting and interpreting information and data from observations and from sources provided. They sequence personal and family events in order and represent the location of different places and their features on labelled maps. They reflect on their learning to suggest ways they can care for places. They share stories about the past, and present observations and findings using everyday terms to denote the passing of time and to describe direction and location.

Students sequence personal and family events in order, using everyday terms about the passing of time. They respond to questions about the past using sources provided. Students relate stories about life in the past, using a range of texts.
