1. Earth and Human Activity

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. Natural resources: Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and that their uses affect the environment

2. Earth's Systems

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. 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. Earth's Place in the Universe

1. Changing Environments: Recognise that environments can change and that this can sometimes pose dangers and challenges to living things

4. From Molecules to Organisms: Structures & Processes

1. 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
2. Structures for Survival: Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behaviour, and reproduction

5. Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer

1. Patterns & Codes for Information: Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information, such as codes and signals
2. How We See Objects: Develop a model to describe that light reflecting from objects and entering the eye allows objects to be seen
3. 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

6. Energy

1. What uses electricity at home: Identify common appliances that run on electricity and understand that electricity is a form of energy that powers devices in everyday life
2. Speed and energy: Use evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object
3. What happens when things collide: Ask questions and predict outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide
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
