What Year 6 HASS students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 6 HASS standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They evaluate sources to determine origin, purpose and perspectives.
- They explain the causes and effects of migration to Australia since Federation.
- Students propose actions or responses and use criteria to assess the possible effects.
- They evaluate evidence to draw conclusions.
- By the end of Year 6, students explain the roles of significant people, events and ideas that led to Australian Federation, democracy and citizenship.
- They explain influences on consumers and strategies for informed consumer and financial choices.
