Content descriptor pose questions to explore observed simple patterns and relationships and make predictions based on experiences

Elaborations

• • Elaboration posing questions about how to make sounds with different instruments, such as: ‘If I do this, will it always produce a higher pitched sound?’
• • Elaboration posing questions about the appearance or position of celestial objects in space across time, such as: ‘I wonder if the moon will look the same tomorrow or next week, as it does today?’
• • Elaboration making predictions about what might occur when materials such as playdough or tissue paper are pulled with different strengths
• • Elaboration making predictions about the relationship between vibration and sound, such as: ‘I think that if a ruler is twanged harder, it will make a louder sound’
• • Elaboration making predictions about future appearances of phenomena in the sky at certain times of the week, month or year, such as the moon or satellites
