Complete national Year 2 reference is included below; inclusion is not proof of teaching every meaning or optional example. Map opportunities against whole descriptions and achievement standard; collect actual evidence, not attendance.

AC9S2U03

Days1–5 known paper physical changes: bends/folds/twists and optional large pieces. Stretching is not offered in this slice; later05–06 is a separate suitable-material opportunity. No all-material/chemical-proof claim.

AC9S2U02

Days6–10 varied gentle source actions; Day8 explicitly teaches receiving-object effect through original primary-source-backed model. Silent/source reasoning can show knowledge without actual sound conduct/receiver observation. Full variety and suitable practical receiver evidence remain to be selected locally.

AC9S2U01

Not taught as a full strand here. Existing03–04 sky supplements are retained separately; complete celestial-object/pattern teaching needs further authored work.

AC9S2H01

Days4/9 useful bounded predictions from named patterns/sources. Fictional makers/helpers are examples, not interviews. Queensland noise-planning connection is a general dated factual source.

AC9S2I01

Questions/predictions tied to experience/source before actions/reveals; not guess-the-key.

AC9S2I02

Safe suggested steps and actual procedures only where conducted/observed; source plans do not fill practical evidence.

AC9S2I03

Actual records/optional informal same-unit tabletop measures; supplied/model values retain their labels. Digital recorder optional, operator/evidence retained; no sensor verifies physical change.

AC9S2I04

Provided table and physical/visual/spoken models retain action/source/unknown, represent only available patterns.

AC9S2I05

Guided comparisons with retained prediction and willing others’ actual notes or explicitly supplied reports, fairness and further questions.

AC9S2I06

Own useful findings/ideas by words/pictures/signs/AAC/scribe with everyday/scientific vocabulary; no forced public presentation.

Queensland interpretation

Modified from Year 2 Science alignment, standard elaborations and Years 1–2 assessment conditions, © State of Queensland (QCAA) 2023, CC BY 4.0, subject to item exceptions. Original limited planning/assessment interpretation; no copied glossary definitions, student work, media or logos. QCAA has not endorsed this pack. ACARA wording inside QCAA retains its separate terms.

Alignment, standard elaborations and Years1–2 conditions were current indexed reads 8 October 2026. WW represents the achievement standard; teacher uses on-balance folio quality, not this count of tasks. Conditions allow suitable modes/components and documented access support. Full state/local sequence, safety and moderation decisions are educator-owned; no other-state equivalence is asserted.
