Science inquiry
- AC9S6I01Pose investigable questions to identify patterns and test relationships and make reasoned predictions
- AC9S6I02Plan and conduct repeatable investigations to answer questions including, as appropriate, deciding the variables to be changed, measured and controlled in fair tests; describing potential risks; planning for the safe use of equipment and materials; and identifying required permissions to conduct investigations on Country/Place
- AC9S6I03Use equipment to observe, measure and record data with reasonable precision, using digital tools as appropriate
- AC9S6I04Construct and use appropriate representations, including tables, graphs and visual or physical models, to organise and process data and information and describe patterns, trends and relationships
- AC9S6I05Compare methods and findings with those of others, recognise possible sources of error, pose questions for further investigation and select evidence to draw reasoned conclusions
- AC9S6I06Write and create texts to communicate ideas and findings for specific purposes and audiences, including selection of language features, using digital tools as appropriate
Science understanding
- AC9S6U01Investigate the physical conditions of a habitat and analyse how the growth and survival of living things is affected by changing physical conditions
- AC9S6U02Describe the movement of Earth and other planets relative to the sun and model how Earth’s tilt, rotation on its axis and revolution around the sun relate to cyclic observable phenomena, including variable day and night length
- AC9S6U03Investigate the transfer and transformation of energy in electrical circuits, including the role of circuit components, insulators and conductors
- AC9S6U04Compare reversible changes, including dissolving and changes of state, and irreversible changes, including cooking and rusting that produce new substances
