AC9S4U04
Chemical sciences
examine the properties of natural and made materials including fibres, metals, glass and plastics and consider how these properties influence their use
Elaborations
- AC9S4U04_E1identifying and naming materials in the classroom, and grouping objects made of similar materials or combinations of materials
- AC9S4U04_E2exploring vocabulary for describing properties; observing different fibres, metals, glass and plastics; and using appropriate terms to describe, compare and contrast their properties
- AC9S4U04_E3investigating familiar objects, such as shoes, drink containers or backpacks, examining the combination of materials from which they are made and suggesting reasons for those combinations based on properties of materials
- AC9S4U04_E4considering how First Nations Australians use materials for different purposes, such as tools, clothing and shelter, based on their properties
- AC9S4U04_E5designing, building and testing an object or structure for a specific purpose, such as a tent, lunchbox or bird feeder
