The Syntax Project

Penny Blomfield, Year 3 teacher.

UPDATE: The Syntax Project has now moved to Ochre: Home - Ochre Education

In 2022, a group of teachers and school leaders from schools across Australia participated in The Syntax Project, facilitated by Stephanie Le Lievre.

Teachers were accepted into the project if they had experience with an explicit-instruction model and could demonstrate an understanding/experience with syntax level instruction.

All Lesson objectives were allocated to individuals based on experience/expertise and the grade they were currently teaching.

All lessons submitted went through a review process by one of our project moderators:

  • Stephanie Le Lievre

  • Rebecca Glasson

  • Christina Guy

  • Jasmyn Hall

All lessons were created in teachers’ own time. They are being shared freely to encourage professional collaboration amongst teachers and schools.

Participating teachers came from the following schools:
