Bailey demonstrates a basic knowledge and understanding of the buoyancy. Bailey was able to make a simple prediction on floating and sinking materials. The conducted test and recorded results were presented in a simple statement with no suggestions for further improvement. The diagram shows little understanding of the task. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade D standard.
Grade D
The student has a basic knowledge and understanding of the content and has achieved a limited level of competence in the processes and skills.Foundation Statement strands
The following strands are covered in this activity:
- Investigating Scientifically
Students conduct guided investigations by following a series of steps that include questioning, making and testing predictions, collecting and recording data, observing patterns and suggesting possible explanations. They select and safely use a range of equipment, computer-based technology and other resources to investigate and explore. - Designing and Making
Students follow a guided design process to create products, including information products, services and built environments. They draw and model design ideas using accepted methods and practices. They select and safely use a range of equipment, computer-based technology and other resources when designing and making. - The Made Environment
Students identify the difference between natural and built environments and model built environments designed to suit the needs of users. They communicate messages using a variety of media and technologies. Students describe and apply production processes using a range of materials and techniques to grow, make or process products.
