Science inquiry
- AC9S4I01Pose questions to explore observed patterns and relationships and make predictions based on observations
- AC9S4I02Use provided scaffolds to plan and conduct investigations to answer questions or test predictions, including identifying the elements of fair tests, and considering the safe use of materials and equipment
- AC9S4I03Follow procedures to make and record observations, including making formal measurements using familiar scaled instruments and using digital tools as appropriate
- AC9S4I04Construct and use representations, including tables, simple column graphs and visual or physical models, to organise data and information, show simple relationships and identify patterns
- AC9S4I05Compare findings with those of others, consider if investigations were fair, identify questions for further investigation and draw conclusions
- AC9S4I06Write and create texts to communicate findings and ideas for identified purposes and audiences, using scientific vocabulary and digital tools as appropriate
Science understanding
- AC9S4U01Explain the roles and interactions of consumers, producers and decomposers within a habitat and how food chains represent feeding relationships
- AC9S4U02Identify sources of water and describe key processes in the water cycle, including movement of water through the sky, landscape and ocean; precipitation; evaporation; and condensation
- AC9S4U03Identify how forces can be exerted by one object on another and investigate the effect of frictional, gravitational and magnetic forces on the motion of objects
- AC9S4U04Examine the properties of natural and made materials including fibres, metals, glass and plastics and consider how these properties influence their use
