ABC Splash

 
Auntie's ABC Splash was launched last year and I hope you have had time to explore the site as it is full of very relevant and engaging digital teaching resources for primary and secondary teachers..All resources are linked directly to the Australian curriculum. Click on the above image to see an example of what's on offer.Students are able to listen to Don Watson, speech-writer for Paul Keating, Michael Gurr playwright and speech-writer, and Ted Widmer foreign policy speech writer for former US president Bill Clinton, discuss the secrets to writing a great speech.
 
Of particular interest to you might be:
  • Making the News - This project features Splash Live where students develop their own news stories over a six week period.There ae some great masterclasses from ABC journalists and producers that have been made especially for students.
  • ABC Zoom - a 3D game created for secondary science students
  • Tailored Teacher Resources - these are tailored to specific topics and show teachers how they can use specific collections of content from the ABC
