Composite Year 2/3 Science Units- Australian Curriculum

Includes update to version 9 of the Australian Curriculum in addition to a version for 8.4. ✓ Editable Unit Planner ✓ Grading Guide ✓ Editable PowerPoint ✓ Worksheets ✓ Success Criteria/Learning Intentions

This is a pack of units that address ALL the Year 2 and 3 Science outcomes from the Australian Curriculum.

These units are for teacher who need to fit both Year 2 and 3 outcomes into a single 1 hour Science unit each week.

This pack is NOT for teachers who teach a straight Year 2 or 3 class. Due to having to condense all the outcomes these units do not go in to as much detail about each concept as you should when you have a straight year level classroom. You can find individual units in my store.

Included are:

♦ Editable Planners

♦ Lesson resources including answer keys

Version 9 units include:

♦ Editable Grading Guide

♦ Editable learning intentions and success criteria

♦ Editable PowerPoint Presentation

Version 9 Units:

• Chemical Science: In this unit, students recognise that materials can be changed physically including how adding or removing heat energy leads to a change of state
• Earth and Space: In this unit, students recognise Earth is a planet in the solar system and explore how Earth’s resources are used in a variety of ways.
• Physical Science: In this unit, students explore how sound and heat energy are produced and how they can be transferred from one object to another.
• Biological Science: In this unit, students compare characteristics of living and non- living things and examine the differences between the life cycles of plants and animals.

Version 8.4 Units:

♦ Physical Science

♦ Earth and Space Science

♦ Chemical Science

♦ Biological Science

✩ At 5-7 pages each the planners features five to six steps for each lesson, keeping it simple and succinct. Teachers need to use their own skill to ensure the lesson remains explicit and teaching opportunities are not missed.

✩ These units also includes grading guides that shows what each grade (A-E) would look like based on two activities from each unit. This documents are also linked to the Achievement Standard for Year 1 and 2 HASS.

✩ This Science unit also contains an editable PowerPoint presentation that can be displayed during each lesson. It includes the learning intentions/success criteria, key discussion points, worksheets and display resources. This makes teaching every lesson even easier if your classroom has a T.V or Smartboard.

THIS PACK CONTAINS RESOURCES THAT ARE ALSO SOLD SEPARATELY. If another resource says it is included in a year 2 or 3 Science unit then there is a good chance it will also be in this bundle (but not guaranteed).
