Foundation Year Teaching Resources
Teach Starter has an extensive collection of Foundation year resources aligned to the Australian Curriculum. They have been created for primary school children aged four through to six years, featuring simple and clear layouts, minimal text, interactive elements, appealing images and colourful illustrations. The collection encompasses a range of resource types and student activities including worksheets, posters, educational games, interactive PowerPoints, engaging widgets and so much more! Using Teach Starter resources in your classroom will help your foundation students communicate with peers, teachers and known adults, assisting with the development of independence, speaking, listening, language and comprehension skills as they begin the smooth transition to the early years of school life.
