What Year 4 HASS students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 4 HASS standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They describe the effects of colonisation on people and environments.
- Students describe the importance of environments, and sustainable allocation and management of resources.
- They describe the importance and role of local government, community members and laws, and the cultural and social factors that shape identity.
- By the end of Year 4, students describe the diversity of experiences of people in Australia prior to and following 1788.
- They interpret and analyse information and data to identify perspectives, and draw conclusions.
- Students develop questions and locate, collect and record information and data from a range of sources and formats.
The Skills progression either side of AC9HS4S02
