What Year 1 Science students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 1 Science standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They follow safe procedures to make and record observations.
- With guidance, they compare observations with predictions and identify further questions.
- They describe situations where they use science in their daily lives and identify examples of people making scientific predictions.
- They use provided tables and organisers to sort and order data and information and, with guidance, represent patterns.
- By the end of Year 1 students identify how living things meet their needs in the places they live.
- They describe how different pushes and pulls change the motion and shape of objects.

A class can only meet this descriptor if they were taught the one before it. If yours hasn't, that's where the lesson starts — not here.
