Coverage of the Australian Curriculum

These online courses are aligned with Version 8.4 of the Australian Curriculum.

Year 7 Chemistry – Science Understanding
Mixtures, including solutions, contain a combination of pure substances that can be separated using a range of techniques (ACSSU113).

Year 7 Biology – Science Understanding
Classification helps organise the diverse group of organisms (ACSSU111).
Interactions between organisms, including the effects of human activities can be represented by food chains and food webs (ACSSU111).

Year 7 Physics – Science Understanding
Change to an object’s motion is caused by unbalanced forces, including Earth’s gravitational attraction, acting on the object (ACSSU117)

Year 7 Earth and Space Sciences – Science Understanding
Predictable phenomena on Earth, including seasons and eclipses, are caused by the relative positions of the sun, Earth and the moon (ACSSU115)
Some of Earth’s resources are renewable, including water that cycles through the environment, but others are non-renewable (ACSSU116)
