In Science, Students consider the operation of systems at a range of scales. They explore ways in which the human body as a system responds to its external environment and the interdependencies between biotic and abiotic components of ecosystems. They are introduced to the notion of the atom as a system of protons, electrons and neutrons. They learn that matter can be rearranged through chemical change. They begin to apply their understanding of energy and forces to global systems such as continental movement. Students develop a range of inquiry skills such as questioning, planning, processing, analysing and evaluating.
