Investigate how we can use what we have learned to control the flow of electricity.
This assessment will span over 2 lessons. In groups, students will pick a natural disaster and create a presentation, which they will presen...
In this lesson, students explore the various extreme weather events that have the power tochange the surface of the earth and impact those o...
In this lesson, students discuss Tsunamis, how they’re formed, and the damage that they do. They explore the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami.
In this lesson, students work through the volcanoes presntation and they creat a 3D model of a volcano.
In this lesson, students watch an example of a presentation similar to the ones they will be starting in a few weeks.They also discuss how s...
In this lesson, students investigate how scientists measure and study earthquakes, and why they do it.
In this lesson, students learn that when plates move across or towards each other, they can release energy in the form of earthquakes.
In this lesson, students explore the different layers of the earth, and focused on the crust. This includes, the thinnest layer, the crust,...
In this activity students look at real world ocean temperature data to try and understand how our changing climate may be affecting the seve...
Students investigate how buildings are designed to incorporate earthquake mitigation, and design their own building for an earthquake prone...
This final assessment piece is a group presentation on a large scale natural disaster. Assessing students’ understanding of the causes an...

An illustration of the difference between series and parallel circuits
These posters show electrical components in cross section so that students are better able to understand how they work.
This is the assessment for the Year 6 science unit on electricity. It tests scientific knowledge and understanding, and practical skills. It...
Students do a number of calculations to identify the financial and environmental effects of making more sustainable decisions around the hom...
Students conduct research to compare different types of electrical power generation, from both fossil fuels and more sustainable options
Students create a circuit to test whether a material is a conductor or an insulator. Students are asked to reflet on safety, as well as whet...
Students solve a number of problems by constructing circuits. The problems get more difficult as time goes on, allowing for all students to...
Students create an electromagnet, compare it to others in the classroom, and then answer a series of questions regarding how their magnet co...
Students learn the basics of an electrical circuit through trial and error. Students draw a diagram of the circuit they’ve created in a rea...
