# PREP- 2 SCOPE & SEQUENCE PHONICS, MORPHOLOGY & WORD KNOWLEDGE AUSTRALIAN CURRICULUM **Price:** $15.00 AUD **Seller:** TeachBuySell Seller **Year Levels:** foundation, year1, year2 **Subjects:** english ## Description (seller-submitted) PREP-2 SCOPE AND SEQUENCE FOR PHONICS, MORPHOLOGY AND WORD KNOWLEDGE AUSTRALIAN CURRICULUM This scope and sequence for phonics, morphology and word knowledge is 42 pages in length and based on a validated SOR sequence.

At the end of the sequence for each year are 'Level Descriptors' and 'Achievement Standards' intended to help teachers make judgements about attainment. Also included are ‘I can statements’ and a comprehensive list of resource links and phonics and morphology glossaries and ideas for investigations. Key contents 1.
