What Year 7 HASS students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 7 HASS standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They describe the perspectives, attitudes and values of the past in sources.
- Students use historical knowledge, concepts, terms and evidence from sources to create descriptions, explanations and historical arguments.
- They analyse information and identify perspectives and challenges related to political, legal or civic issues.
- They identify the causes and effects of events, developments and achievements connected to groups and individuals in Australia and other societies from the ancient past.
- Students develop questions about the past.
- They describe the reasons businesses exist and types of businesses, and identify how entrepreneurial characteristics contribute to the success of a business.
