1. Geography · Examining human population and movement helps individuals understand past, present, and future conditions on Earth’s surface.

1. Finding patterns in data: Analyse and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth's features, recognising that many features result from processes that occur over long periods

2. Geography · Human-environment interactions are essential aspects of human life in all societies.

1. Ocean Ecosystems: Understand ocean ecosystems as interconnected systems where living things (producers, consumers, decomposers) and non-living factors (temperature, salinity, light, currents) all interact, and that changes to one part affect the whole system

3. Disciplinary Skills and Processes · Historians and Social Scientists gather, interpret, and use evidence to develop claims and answer historical, economic, geographical, and political questions and co

1. Drawing conclusions from evidence: Report on findings from enquiries using oral and written explanations, draw simple conclusions, make predictions, and suggest improvements

4. Disciplinary Skills and Processes · Chronological reasoning requires understanding processes of change and continuity over time, which means assessing similarities and differences between historical p

1. Correlation vs Causation: Two things happening together doesn't mean one caused the other — recognise the difference between correlation and causation before drawing conclusions

5. Life Sciences

1. How animals adapt to environments: Identify how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environment and understand that adaptation may lead to evolution over time

6. Earth and Space Sciences

1. Natural Disaster Solutions: Generate and compare multiple solutions to reduce the impacts of natural Earth processes on humans, such as earthquakes, floods, or volcanic eruptions
2. Reading Weather Maps: Read and interpret weather maps, data tables, and graphs — identifying symbols for sun, rain, wind, and temperature; spotting trends and patterns in weather data over weeks, months, or seasons; and using data to make simple predictions
3. How fossils form: Identify evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils in rock layers to support an explanation for changes in a landscape over time
4. Earth's atmosphere: Develop a model to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere interact as connected Earth systems
5. Waves & How They Move: Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength, and understand that waves can cause objects to move

7. Physical Sciences

1. How energy travels around: Observe and provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents
2. Natural resources: Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and that their uses affect the environment
