You have fully detailed one health unit plan from your scope and sequence. You have provided a range of pedagogical models and have
included a range of digital resources and technologies in teaching and learning in PDHPE. Your learning opportunities were well detailed,
the explanations themselves to give a description of what the students are doing and producing. etc. You have
addressed some differentiation strategies – this section was strengthened by your identification of an example student (Student X) with
specific special needs; and by then supplying both lowered syllabus outcomes and specific syllabus outcomes for this student, however
you have given limited examples throughout your learning experience as to how Student X will engage. Your summative task made good
use of verbs as well as provided an authentic and engaging learning opportunity, and your marking rubric clearly aligns with these verbs to
create distinctions between the A-E standards of achievement. Your justification of the design of the assessment task has provided
detailed strategies addressing student Esafety, integration of literacy, numeracy and digital literacy capabilities. You address some
strategies for scaffolding the assessment task to successfully assist learners and show some general strategies for how the task could be
differentiated to assist learners with diverse needs – more explicit integration of these strategies into the unit and the summative task
would have further showcased your knowledge.

UNIT OVERVIEW:
In this unit, students develop a stronger understanding of how to make positive decisions and the impact these have on themselves
and others that promote healthy and safe lifestyles. In this unit students are presented with information on the different food products available
(including the five food groups) and how we choose which foods to incorporate into our everyday diet. Throughout the unit students use this
knowledge gained to make informed decisions about healthy eating habits and planning
choices.

Students will look at the role of food in student’s health and wellbeing. They will be presented with information on the different food products
available (including the five food groups/food pyramid). Throughout this task students will explore the way in which the foods we choose to
incorporate into our everyday diet effects our health and wellbeing. This task aims to encourage students to use/apply the knowledge gained to
make informed decisions about healthy eating habits and choices in everyday life.

• Explore foods that contribute to good health and healthy eating habits.
• Describe how individuals help one another to stay healthy and safe in various environments:
• Recognise what makes an environment safe and support e.g. vegetable garden
DESCRIPTION OF TASK
Students are required to:
- Students will be required to create a scenario (role play) in their groups of putting together a healthy and balanced lunchbox for school. This
task will assess students knowledge and understanding from this unit, as well as their ability to put it into practice. Students will be provided
prompts to encourage creativity. For example, consider the roles students will play in your groups, whether it be your parents, siblings,
grandparents, yourself. “You might re-enact how you would pack your lunch boxes. You might re-enact how you will shop for your lunches at
the supermarket or from your own veggie garden.” The scenario will be video recorded using the class devices (iPad) and uploaded to Seesaw
for students and parents to access. Students may use any props they can find (flash cards, objects in the room, etc.)
- Following each groups’ scenario, a few students from the audience will be asked for their opinions/feedback using the ‘two stars, one wish’
strategy. Student who would like to give ‘two stars and one wish’ can also share this through Seesaw (comment under video)
CRITERIA FOR ASSESSING LEARNING:
Students will be assessed on their ability to:
Student will:
• Produce an engaging and informative scenario of how to create a healthy and balanced lunch box for both home and school life
• Highlight the importance of a healthy balance diet and identifies food groups
• Compares and explains the difference between ‘sometimes’ and ‘everyday’ foods
• Demonstrates their ability to apply the skills and knowledge learnt throughout the unit in real life settings
STANDARDS REFERENCED MARKING CRITERIA:
According to Louden (2005), scaffolding is described as essential for effective pedagogy (McLean, 2013). With this in mind, this assessment task
has been scaffolded through the various learning opportunities seen throughout this unit. Firstly, asking students to share their own experiences and
opinions on what they have/had in their lunch boxes, especially through the use of open-ended questions allows for students to tap into their prior
knowledge and apply that into the learning experience. Secondly, the use of visual aids such as the flash cards of food items and visuals of magic
lunchbox was incorporated into the unit as a scaffolding tool to assist visual learners to grasp concepts and shape student thinking by enabling them
to visually represent ideas and information. These approaches both support the learning needs of ‘Student X’ as well as other learners of varying
needs to achieve success in this area of learning. This assessment task aims to provide students with an opportunity to demonstrate what they have
learned based off indicated curriculum outcomes within this unit. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the learning outcomes and objectives are
made explicit to students prior to learning and assessment so that they are aware of what they are expected to achieve (Meldrum & Peters, 2012, p.
253).
On another note, this assessment task was also differentiated by creating a learning experience that is student led. Using this approach allowed for
student directed learning and team work amongst groups. In order to accommodate the learning needs of all students, differentiation strategies were
incorporated according to students abilities. This included grouping students into small groups with varying abilities and skills, so as to ensure that
each child was contributing to the assessment activity by promoting student engagement, participation and collaboration. With that being said, using
both approaches in conjunction with one another promotes a more open-ended learning environment that allows for differentiation and thus,
enhances student learning (Harasim, 2017, p.62).
Constructivist theory maintains that, 'people construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world through experiencing the world and
reflecting on those experiences (Harasim, 2017, p.62). Therefore, this assessment task has been designed in reference to John B. Biggs’s
Constructivist Alignment Theory in HPE, whereby students are delivered with engaging, creative learning experiences around nutrition (Biggs,
2003, p. 27). Thus, this assessment task aims to create a meaningful and authentic learning experience that could be used to support students’ active
participation in the implementation of a healthy eating. Moreover, in this summative assessment it is crucial to promote a deeper understanding of
the material or content being learnt, as opposed to encourage rote learning of information (Meldrum & Peters, 2012, p.254). Therefore, through
encouraging students to make reference to learning content throughout the unit in turn, promotes significance and connectedness to real life
situations and environments (Department of Education, 2008). Additionally, a cross-curricular approach has been included through the integration of
literacy, numeracy and digital literacy capabilities to enhance student learning (NESA, 2019). Furthermore, E-safety important is an important aspect
to consider when designing an assessment task. In this particular task, students’ role plays were recorded using the class devices (iPad) via the
Seesaw app, which was then uploaded for parents and students to view. Using an application such as Seesaw, students need to be aware of the
responsibilities of using digital technologies through education of online safety. By also making the assessment task accessible to parents/caregivers
is an effective way to include them in the learning experience which consequently promotes parent-school relationships (Dudley, Telford, Peralta,
Stonehouse & Winslade, 2018). Ultimately, this assessment task was devised with the aim to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate
their standard of achievement of syllabus outcomes.
