Based on the Australian Curriculum,Evaluatingin Science Year 2 includes:
This teaching presentation introduces the force of gravity and using air resistance to counteract this force.
A science experiment which investigates the buoyancy of different objects when placed in water.
A teaching presentation discussing the development of a scientific hypothesis.
An educational teaching presentation introducing the students to the R.E.R.U.N. method for writing a scientific conclusion.
An educational fact sheet introducing the students to the R.E.R.U.N. method for writing a scientific conclusion.
An educational poster introducing the students to the R.E.R.U.N. method for writing a scientific conclusion.
A teaching presentation discussing the development of scientific lines of questioning.
A worksheet to help the students begin the process of a scientific investigation.
A science experiment which explores the growth and change of a seedling.
A 20 slide teaching presentation to use when introducing your students to the scientific method.
A hands-on investigation task that allows students to work directly with the forces they have been learning.
A hands-on investigation task that allows students to design, create, and evaluate the effectiveness of a parachute.
This Biological Sciences unit explores how living things grow and change. Animal offspring (including humans) are compared with their parents and plants are grown from seed in order to observe change over a period of weeks.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will plant seeds following the procedure of the scientific method.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will explore the force of buoyancy.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will explore the force of friction.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will investigate push and push forces at work in the playground.
