Caterpillars
Features
-Living things (caterpillars) have a variety of external features (ACSSU017)
-Pose and respond to questions about the features of a caterpillar, and make predictions about what features they believe the caterpillar has (ACSIS024)
Use a range of methods to sort caterpillar features, including drawings and provided tables through discussion, compare observations with predictions (ACSIS027)
Represent and communicate observations and ideas in a variety of ways (ACSIS029)
Environment
-Living things live in different places where their needs are met (ACSSU211)
-Observable changes occur in the sky and landscape (ACSSU019)
-People use science in their daily lives, including when caring for their environment and living things (ACSHE022)
Diet
-Participate in guided investigations to explore and answer questions about the caterpillars diet (ACSIS025)
-What should they eat?
-What shouldn't they eat?
How do they eat?
-Plants and animals used for production have basic needs, such as food/nutrients, water, space, protection (ACTDEK003)
Becoming a butterfly
-Science involves observing, asking questions about, and describing changes in, the cycle of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly (metamorphosis) (ACSHE021)
-Investigate the cycle of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly through video (ACSIS025)
Arts
-Everyday materials can be physically changed in a variety of ways (ACSSU018)
Using recyclables to create a 3D model of a caterpillar
-Characteristics and behaviours of individual materials used in products (ACTDEK004)
-Measure and compare the lengths and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units (ACMMG019)
-Children drawing their own version of a caterpillar
-Develop and communicate design ideas through describing, drawing, modelling and/or a sequence of written or spoken steps (WATPPS07)
Children develop a growth mindset and learning dispositions such as curiosity, cooperation, confidence,
creativity, commitment, enthusiasm, persistence, imagination and reflexivity (Outcome 4)
Reading
