In
this
learning
sequence,
students
will
learn
the
concepts
connected
to
the
text
such
as
refugee,
asylum
seeker,
migrant
and
influences
that
are
associated
with
refugees
such
as:

some
of
the
countries
that
they
are
escaping
from
and
why
might
a
family
leave
their
country.
Students
will
also
learn

an
understanding
of
the
Vietnamese
culture
and
history
and
unpack
crucial
concepts
associated
with
refugees
such
as
hope,

Lastly,
students
will
discover
a
few
of
the
visual
elements
of
the
text
in
terms
of
the
colour,
style
of
the
text,
double

in
Australia?
What
do
these

signify
to
you?
Students
are
expected
to
think
of
as

levels
of
meaning
as
they
can.

Teaching
Focus

Introduction
to
the
text
and
understanding
important
notions
connected
to
the
text.
Students
will
be
introduced
to
concepts
such
as
refugee,
asylum
seeker
and
migrant
and
some
of
the
countries
they
are
escaping
from
today.
E.g.
Afghanistan,
Syria,
Vietnam
etc.
This
teaching
focus
mainly
involves
stimulating
students
in
conversation
and
discussion.
The
teacher
is
required
to
prompt
conversation
and
encourage
students
to
share
their
prior
knowledge
on
the
topic.
Stories
/
past
experiences
of
students
in
class
will
bring
the
topic
closer
to
the
classroom
as
real
life
examples
offer
a
deeper
meaning
and
engage
students
on
a
personal
level.
The
teacher
will
use

as
a
resource
for
students
to
further
enhance
their
knowledge
about
refugees.

focus
What
is
an
Asylum

What does it feel like to be a refugee?
What
are
some
of
the
countries
that
they
are
escaping
from?
Why
might
a
family
leave
their
country
(Students
can
give
answers
such
as
due
to
war,
poverty,
etc.)
Personal
experiences
Students
are
expected
to
use
their
exercise
books
and
think
of
a
personal
experience
of
theirs
or
a
family
member/friends
etc.
and
write
an
account
of
their
personal
experiences.
Encouraging
students
to
use
their
own
examples
and
own
stories
will
allow
students
to
have
a
closer
connection
with
the
topic.
For
the
students
that
dont
have
personal
examples
and
stories
can
use
the
photographs
as
a
stimuli
to
write
a
fictional
story
and
build
on
their
prior
knowledge.
Whole
class
Activities
to
As
a
class,
students
will
be
individually
encouraged
to
share
their
personal
stories.
Every
student
will
be
given
the
engage
the
students
opportunity
to
share
his
or
her
prior
experiences,
knowledge,
examples
and
personal
accounts.
Follow
on
activities
This
follow
on
activity
requires
students
to
work
in
pairs.
Students
will
use
their
exercise
books
and
write
as
many
partner/group/independent
reasons
as
they
can
think
of
as
to
why
people
move
from
their
homes.
This
can
be
due
to
war,
poverty,
lack
of
health
resources,
better
job,
better
life,
to
get
married
etc.
Students
can
then
divide
these
reasons
into
two
segments.
The
findings
of
segment
one
will
include
reasons
people
may
leave
their
motherland
and
move
to
a
country
on
the
basis
of
a
better
job,
financial
stability,
marriage
and
so
on.
Next,
the
second
segment
will
encourage
students
to
write
the
reasons
as
to
why
people
move
due
to
involuntarily
reasons
such
as
leave
their
country
due
to
war,
poverty,
oppression
and
so
on.
The
findings
will
be
discussed
as
a
whole
class.
This
allows
students
to
differentiate
between
a
migrant
and
refugee.
Assessment:
The
findings

Introduction
5
minutes
With
students
gathered
on
the
floor,
the
teacher
will
introduce
this
session
by
presenting
the
students
with
the
Roll

Retell
sheet,
and
explain
how
the
activity
works
(Appendix
3.0).
As
well
as
treading
over
the
sheet
together,
this
time
will
also
be
used
to
delegate
groups
and
resources.
For
this
activity,
groups
of
3-4
would
work
best.
Elaboration
In this section of the lesson, the class will have the chance to practice the activity before they separate into their
15
minutes
groups. To practice, the teacher can go through an example of each response, calling on students for participation.
Together, the grade will create an example response to each of the six options. These six examples can be written
on the board to refer back to during the session.
The
topics
that
will
be
discussed
includes:
What
sort

Students
will
then
use
the
examples
of
the
book
and
create
a
role-play
that
demonstrates
the
experiences
and
challenges
of
moving
to
a
new
school.
Students
are
to
re-enact
a
situation
where
a
student
is
new
to
a
school,
students
will
role-play
some
of
the
challenges
that
may
be
faced
for
the
new
student,
and
how
the
other
students
might
make
them
feel
welcome/unwelcome
and
how
to
overcome
the
challenges.
The
role-play
will
proceed
for
7-10
minutes
and

These
ideas
and
experiences
will
be
written
