Achievement standard

What Year 6 Science students should achieve

Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 6 Science standard sentences this code builds towards:

  • They describe risks associated with investigations and key intercultural considerations when planning field work.
  • Students plan safe, repeatable investigations to identify patterns and test relationships and make reasoned predictions.
  • By the end of Year 6 students explain how changes in physical conditions affect living things.
  • They identify variables to be changed, measured and controlled.
  • They describe how individuals and communities use scientific knowledge.
  • They select and use language features effectively for their purpose and audience when communicating their ideas and findings.
