Rugby themes
Eight Rugby themes have been used to group the EdRugby lessons, interactive games and word puzzles.
The Rugby themes are Game plan, Teamwork, The game of Rugby, Rugby diversity, Rugby heritage, Rugby media, Australian pride and Rugby fans.
Click on the themes to the right to view the lessons developed under each theme.
Teachers may develop a cross-curriculum unit of work using lesson plans within one or more of the Rugby themes or use individual lessons to complement existing units of work.
Teacher testimonials
Paul Harkin, English teacher, NSW
"My students are often required to develop different text types and genres such as short stories, poems, match reports and biographies, so I find the Rugby media theme most useful in my English units of work."
Liz Sealy, Classroom teacher, SA
"I've just completed an 'Australia and its neighbours' unit and the EdRugby lessons 'Aussies and Kiwis' were great to use. The activities focussing on similarities and differences were very useful as were the mapping activities. I'm planning to organise a 'Sports around the world' unit and I think the EdRugby lessons about Rugby playing countries will also be very interesting and relevant."
