- ULO2 Classify and compare changes to substances as reversible or irreversible, using evidence from observations. Science understanding — Chemical sciences analyze
- ULO3 Describe the effects of sudden geological events (earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis) and extreme weather (cyclones, extreme heat, floods) on Earth's surface. Science understanding — Earth and space sciences understand
- ULO4 Identify the role of circuit components, insulators and conductors in the transfer and transformation of electrical energy in electrical circuits. Science understanding — Physical sciences understand
- ULO5 Pose testable questions that include variables to be changed and measured, apply science knowledge to make reasoned predictions, and plan and conduct fair, safe, repeatable investigations with controlled variables. Science inquiry — Questioning, predicting, planning and conducting apply
- ULO6 Use equipment to generate and record data; organise and represent it using tables, graphs and models (including line graphs for continuous data) to identify relationships between variables; evaluate the fairness of an investigation; and compare results to predictions. Science inquiry — Processing, modelling, analysing and evaluating analyze
- ULO7 Draw evidence-based conclusions and communicate ideas, procedures and findings in a variety of ways, including scientific reports with appropriate language features, and use science knowledge to develop considered responses to local and global problems. Science inquiry — Communicating, collaborating and applying create
