Planning a learning sequence - Popplet

I am a Teacher Librarian and therefore have some flexibility in learning design. The content areas I decided to focus on are from English and the General Capabilities of the Australian Curriculum. I have selected strands from the Year 6 level as I wanted students with sufficient basic literacy and technology skills to work fairly independently in the Wikispace classroom. In my role as TL supporting classroom teachers (English) and  providing instruction in a digital environment (all students) I decided to set a task that requires students to employ the 21st Century skills. The skills involved in content creation, collaboration, critical and reflective thinking and problem solving will all be practised within the unit. Socially constructed knowledge will result in a finished product to be used in an authentic project relevant to Year 6 students' life outside of the classroom.

This is a Popplet (concept web) at the early planning stage of the unit of work.
