UNIT OF INQUIRY
SHARING THE PLANET
Students will explore how governments and organisations work to support communities and promote peace. They will inquire into how systems function, why they exist, and how they impact people's lives. By investigating real-world issues, students will understand the causes of conflict and the power of cooperation. This concept-driven approach builds knowledge of function and causation. Students will develop communication, thinking, and social skills as they learn how to take meaningful action and contribute to a more just and peaceful world.
LANGUAGE
THE LANGUAGE OF SCIENCE
Students will explore how scientists use language to ask questions, test ideas, and explain results. They will read and write lab reports, analyze data, and create infographics. They will learn to use precise vocabulary, organize ideas clearly, and support claims with evidence. By observing, experimenting, and drawing conclusions, students will build a deep understanding of how scientific thinking works. They will communicate their findings using charts, graphs, and structured reports that inform and explain.
MATHS
FRACTIONS
Students will explore how fractions, decimals, and percentages represent parts of a whole and connect to each other. Through inquiry, they will model, compare, and operate with these forms using real-world problems. They will develop strategies to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions and decimals. Visual tools and hands-on tasks will support deep understanding. Students will build skills in reasoning, communication, and problem-solving, learning to explain their thinking clearly and apply concepts flexibly in everyday contexts.
DATA HANDLING
Students will explore how to collect, organize, and interpret data to make informed decisions. They will learn to use graphs, charts, and databases to display information clearly. Through inquiry, students will understand key statistics like mean, median, mode, and range. They will investigate probability by comparing experimental and theoretical outcomes and express it using fractions, decimals, and percentages. This unit develops skills in analyzing data, conducting experiments, and communicating findings confidently and accurately.
