Achievement standard

What Year 2 Science students should achieve

Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 2 Science standard sentences this code builds towards:

  • They demonstrate how different sounds can be produced and describe the effect of sound energy on objects.
  • Students pose questions to explore observed patterns or relationships and make predictions based on experience.
  • They use everyday and scientific vocabulary to communicate observations, findings and ideas.
  • By the end of Year 2 students identify celestial objects and describe patterns they observe in the sky.
  • They identify ways to change materials without changing their material composition.
  • With guidance, they compare their observations with those of others, identify whether their investigation was fair and identify further questions.
