From tadpoles to erosion to invisible forces, Year 4 science asks students to explain change. These Year 4 science lessons cover living things and life cycles, earth and space, physical sciences, and chemical sciences, one slide deck for each of the four science understanding areas in the Australian Curriculum v9.0.

Students describe and compare life cycles, examine the natural processes and human activities that reshape Earth's surface, explore forces including friction and gravity, and investigate the properties of natural and processed materials. Each deck states its objectives, so mapping the set against your science program takes moments.

Run the lessons as supplied, or open a deck in Chalkie to make it yours: track the life cycle of a creature your class is raising, or feature erosion photos from your own coastline. That is the point of these Year 4 science lessons, strong bones you can flesh out locally.
