What Foundation HASS students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Foundation HASS standard sentences this code builds towards:
- Students recognise the features of familiar places, why some places are special to people and the ways they can care for them.
- Students pose questions, and sort and record information from observations and provided sources.
- They share a perspective and draw conclusions.
- By the end of Foundation, students identify significant people and events in their own lives, and how significant events are celebrated or commemorated.
- Students use sources and terms to share observations about places and the past.
