What Year 1 HASS students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 1 HASS standard sentences this code builds towards:
- By the end of Year 1, students identify continuity and change in family structures, roles and significant aspects of daily life.
- They draw conclusions and make proposals.
- They identify the location and nature of the natural, managed and constructed features of local places, the ways places change, and how they can be cared for by people.
- Students share narratives and observations about people, places and the past, drawing on sources and incorporating subject-specific terms.
- Students develop questions and collect, sort and record information and data from observations and provided sources.
- They interpret information and discuss perspectives.
