Understand the effect of weather on the surface of the Earth.
Describe how weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition cause slow or rapid change to Earth’s surface
Investigate how scientific knowledge is used by individuals and communities to identify problems, consider responses and make decisions
Pose investigable questions to identify patterns and test relationships and make reasoned predictions
Plan and conduct repeatable investigations to answer questions, including, as appropriate, deciding the variables to be changed, measured and controlled in fair tests; describing potential risks; planning for the safe use of equipment and materials; and identifying required permissions to conduct investigations on Country/Place
Construct and use appropriate representations, including tables, graphs and visual or physical models, to organise and process data and information and describe patterns, trends and relationships
Compare methods and findings with those of others, recognise possible sources of error, pose questions for further investigation and select evidence to draw reasoned conclusions
Write and create texts to communicate ideas and findings for specific purposes and audiences, including selection of language features, using digital tools as appropriate
Understand the process that forms rocks over time and the different names given to rocks at various stages of The Rock Cycle.
