What Year 3 Science students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 3 Science standard sentences this code builds towards:
- By the end of Year 3 students classify and compare living and non-living things and different life cycles.
- Students pose questions to explore patterns and relationships and make predictions based on observations.
- They identify sources of heat energy and examples of heat transfer and explain changes in the temperature of objects.
- They describe how people use data to develop explanations.
- They identify solutions that use scientific explanations.
- They organise data and information using provided scaffolds and identify patterns and relationships.

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.
