Description
Help your HSC students grow their knowledge and reinforce their learnings with the HSC Community and Family Studies (CAFS) Individuals and Work homework book. This booklet will allow students to have their writing checked and assessed weekly.
The book includes 17 questions which are formatted in HSC style and cover the Individuals and Work unit in the CAFS Community and Family Studies syllabus. A variety of key terms have been used across these questions to give students ample opportunity to practice their responses in the lead up to the exams.
As this homework book does not include sample answers, the answers are not published anywhere so the students cannot simply google the answers. The students will be required to answer by applying their own knowledge of the content.
The homework book can be differentiated to suit the students’ needs. Alternatively, this booklet can be used for revision of the Family and Societal Interactions unit.
Pack includes:
- 34-page HSC CAFS Individuals and Work student workbook
