Ten distinct optional 12-minute blocks in each of Science, HASS, Health and Physical Education, Technologies and The Arts. The Arts gives two days each to Dance, Drama, Media Arts, Music and Visual Arts. Fifty swap-in contexts let a teacher change examples while retaining the concept and evidence rule. These blocks supplement the main English/mathematics work and existing integrated weeks; they are not a complete weekly allocation for any subject.

Run one block

  1. Select the day and subject, prepare its ordinary kit and check school safety/access policy. Every menu uses 0–2, 2–4, 4–10, 10–12 minutes. Set out one of the five original A4 aids, or use its text/tactile version. An optional original eight-beat audio cue supports Music, with a visual/tactile alternative.
  2. Give the clean learner copy. Learners can switch between practical, visual/tactile and spoken/AAC routes. These are access choices, not fixed “learning styles.” Offer a private willing audience, short directions, processing time and comfortable sensory levels. No device, account, purchase, personal disclosure or public sharing is required for the non-digital routes.
  3. On Day 15/20, hand out only the chosen subject’s fresh check. Keep the staff key and next teaching moves private. A conceptual answer and an actually observed movement, physical artefact, performance or running program are different evidence. Use the observed action card honestly.
  4. Use the exact curriculum crosswalk, source and rights ledger and desk run-through when adapting. The local verifier checks days, routes, checks, official rows, print/audio, links and hashes.

Safety and coverage boundary

Science circuits use only a teacher-approved enclosed low-voltage kit. No mains power, loose button cells, heat, tasting, hazardous weather entry, road entry or open water inspection. Without a circuit kit or approved visual-program workspace, learners can plan/model and the teacher records plan only. All cases and sample data are fictional unless the source ledger identifies an official fact. Check real government roles, map sources and local school policy before teaching or acting. Science/HASS link to official Year 6 descriptions; HPE, Technologies and The Arts link to the official Years 5 and 6 band. The crosswalk explicitly marks partial and conditional scope. No state/territory compliance, community-approved First Nations content, translation or classroom effectiveness is claimed.
