Background information for the teacher:

This resource has been created for year 2 teachers as a resource to teach technology from the National Australian Curriculum. Using the well-known story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears students will analyse parts of the story to investigate what Baby Bear’s bed was made out of to be considered ‘perfect.’ Students will then design Goldilocks’s bed and evaluate what makes it perfect. This resource will also meet the needs of cross curriculum priorities from the National Australian Curriculum.
