| ACARA v9 official downloads | Official workbook pinned 29 September 2026; original SHA-256 db446882d2c00cf7c085a03e250e2442fda6c44011fc114680c46c1dc7a822c3. Crosswalk gives seven exact Foundation Science descriptions and rows; verifier checks the workbook hash and local import. | ACARA wording remains under its terms, not our CC BY licence. A code link is partial and does not imply endorsement or achievement. |
| ACARA AC9SFU03 teacher background | Confirms the official description concerns objects composed of different materials and observable properties. No contextual examples are reproduced. | The linked First Nations examples require appropriate cultural authority if later used locally; they are not included or independently taught here. |
| QCAA ACiQ v9 Science, Prep alignment, planning resources | Official Queensland Prep implementation/planning entry points checked 30 September 2026. The Prep alignment independently lists AC9SFU03, AC9SFH01 and AC9SFI01–05 with the same description wording. | School/local authority must check current planning, materials, access and assessment requirements. This pack is not endorsed. |
Fact boundary: K depicts two regions and six lines, not physical materials. L/N are invented maker reports, not a real local maker or observation. L's ribbed paper-based C contradicts M's “ribs always mean fabric” within the fictional record; it does not establish how real sample C feels or looks. A material label in a genuine teacher-made setup needs reliable provenance. Visible appearance and material identity are separate entries. Actual feature evidence requires an approved dated safe view, exact sample, raw observation/access and verified material source; otherwise REAL OBSERVATION NOT AVAILABLE. If the adult reports a feature, ADULT REPORT is attributed and is not the child's own direct sensory observation. Unknown adhesive or hidden layers remain unknown.
Safety/access/privacy: only broad clean intact adult-prepared surfaces, after local approval, allergy/fibre/adhesive/edge checks and choice of visual, auditory report, safe touch or no touch. No child must handle a sample or disclose a personal possession, family practice, diagnosis or language. No child image/name or identifiable work is uploaded by these resources. Genuine class records stay in the school's private system. A paper/tactile facsimile is a representation, not the actual material feel. A family choice is optional and returns nothing.

The local generator and verifier code have Apache-2.0 SPDX headers. No audio file is present; later audio needs human listening review. No First Nations terms, symbols or translation are invented; language/cultural work needs the appropriate speakers and authority. Human educator, accessibility, state/local syllabus, safety and classroom trial review remain pending.
