1. Science

1. 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
2. Erosion and weathering: Make observations and measurements to provide evidence of the effects of weathering or the rate of erosion by water, ice, wind, or vegetation
3. 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
4. How energy travels around: Observe and provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents
5. Natural resources: Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and that their uses affect the environment
6. 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
7. Structures for Survival: Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behaviour, and reproduction
8. Senses, Brain & Responses: Use a model to describe that animals receive information through their senses, process it in their brain, and respond in different ways
9. Speed and energy: Use evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object
10. What happens when things collide: Ask questions and predict outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide
11. Building an energy-converting device: Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another
12. 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
13. How We See Objects: Develop a model to describe that light reflecting from objects and entering the eye allows objects to be seen
14. Patterns & Codes for Information: Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information, such as codes and signals
