This unit investigates the archival documentary technique used in The Final Quarter. These lessons have been prepared to support teachers in exploring the topics of archival documentaries, filmmaking and film analysis, through the lens of The Final Quarter documentary.	This unit unpacks the Nutrition Information Panel (NIP) on packaged food. It demystifies the sometimes complicated range of terms and figures, and explores how the NIP can be co-opted by advertising techniques.	This unit focuses on best practices to include everyone in the classroom. It explores difference and similarity, and helps students take steps to create a welcoming, inclusive environment.	This shows students how social innovation can benefit even the most developed areas. The lessons guide students through the process of finding and understanding a problem, designing a solution for this problem, thinking about the opportunities and challenges associated with their solution.	Young people who are connected to their world and their environment are more likely to take action to care for it later in life. In this unit, students will explore key themes around sustainability through creativity.
