Living things have structural features and adaptations that help them to survive in their environment

ACSHE081

Science involves testing predictions by gathering data and using evidence to develop explanations of events and phenomena and reflects historical and cultural contributions

ACSIS231

With guidance, pose clarifying questions and make predictions about scientific investigations

ACSIS087

Decide variables to be changed and measured in fair tests, and observe measure and record data with accuracy using digital technologies as appropriate

ACSIS218

Compare data with predictions and use as evidence in developing explanations

ACSIS090

Construct and use a range of representations, including tables and graphs, to represent and describe observations, patterns or relationships in data using digital technologies as appropriate

ACSIS093

Communicate ideas, explanations and processes using scientific representations in a variety of ways, including multi-modal texts

ST3-1WS-S

Plans and conducts scientific investigations to answer testable questions, and collects and summarises data to communicate conclusions

ST3-3DP-T

Defines problems, and designs, modifies and follows algorithms to develop solutions

ST3-4LW-S

Examines how the environment affects the growth, survival and adaptation of living things

ST3-11DI-T

Explains how digital systems represent data, connect together to form networks and transmit data

ST3-4LW-S

Examines how the environment affects the growth, survival and adaptation of living things

VCSSU073

Scientific understandings, discoveries and inventions are used to inform personal and community decisions and to solve problems that directly affect people's lives

VCSSU074

Living things have structural features and adaptations that help them to survive in their environment

VCSIS082

With guidance, pose questions to clarify practical problems or inform a scientific investigation, and predict what the findings of an investigation might be based on previous experiences or general rules

VCSIS084

Decide which variables should be changed, measured and controlled in fair tests and accurately observe, measure and record data

VCSIS085

Construct and use a range of representations, including tables and graphs, to record, represent and describe observations, patterns or relationships in data

VCSIS086

Compare data with predictions and use as evidence in developing explanations

VCSIS088

Communicate ideas and processes using evidence to develop explanations of events and phenomena and to identify simple cause-and-effect relationships
