TERM 1 INQUIRY (CIVICS AND CITIZENSHIP) Students identify who can be an Australian citizen and describe the rights, responsibilities and shared values of Australian citizenship. Their ideas are transferred to students being citizens of our school community and what this entails. Students identify different points of view regarding Australian citizenship. They investigate how people with shared beliefs and values work together to achieve their goals and plan for action. TERM 2 INQUIRY (EARTH AND SPACE SCIENCE) Students ask questions and make predictions based on their observations to explore properties of the Sun and develop an understanding that the Earth is just one of a system of planets that orbit the Sun (a star). Through a series of investigations students experiment with light (from the Sun and other sources) and observe how light can be absorbed, reflected and refracted. Students explore where light comes from, the various forms it takes, how it is used, how it travels and how it helps us to see. Students investigate the role of light in our life and in our world. AUSLAN Students develop their foundational conversation skills, using simple greetings, signing their emotions, days of the week and months of the years as well as fingerspelling skills. They ask and answer questions in Auslan as well as follow directions given by signing. Students use the answers from these questions to collate data to be presented in graphs and tables.
