Curriculum
ACSHE061
Science involves making predictions and describing patterns and relationships
ACSHE062
Science knowledge helps people to understand the effect of their actions
ACSIS064
With guidance, identify questions in familiar contexts that can be investigated scientifically and make predictions based on prior knowledge
ACSIS066
Consider the elements of fair tests and use formal measurements and digital technologies as appropriate, to make and record observations accurately
ACSIS065
With guidance, plan and conduct scientific investigations to find answers to questions, considering the safe use of appropriate materials and equipment
ACSIS216
Compare results with predictions, suggesting possible reasons for findings
ACSIS068
Use a range of methods including tables and simple column graphs to represent data and to identify patterns and trends
ACSIS069
Reflect on investigations, including whether a test was fair or not
ACSIS071
Represent and communicate observations, ideas and findings using formal and informal representations
ST2-1WS-S
Questions, plans and conducts scientific investigations, collects and summarises data and communicates using scientific representations
ST2-11DI-T
Describes how digital systems represent and transmit data

AC9S2H01
Describe how people use science in their daily lives, including using patterns to make scientific predictions
AC9S3H02
Consider how people use scientific explanations to meet a need or solve a problem
AC9S3I01
Pose questions to explore observed patterns and relationships and make predictions based on observations
AC9S3I02
Use 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
AC9S3I03
Follow procedures to make and record observations, including making formal measurements using familiar scaled instruments and using digital tools as appropriate
AC9S3I04
Construct and use representations, including tables, simple column graphs and visual or physical models, to organise data and information, show simple relationships and identify patterns
AC9S3I05
Compare findings with those of others, consider if investigations were fair, identify questions for further investigation and draw conclusions
AC9S3I06
Write and create texts to communicate findings and ideas for identified purposes and audiences, using scientific vocabulary and digital tools as appropriate
