Analyse data and explain the presence of anomalies with improvementsCommunicate findings and arguments, show awareness of a range of opinionsIdentify several risks in an investigation, and assess how to control them using primary sourcesJudge whether evidence can be trusted by investigating its sourceFormulate ideas about science and independently research your ideasConstruct arguments for and against scientific advancements and show awareness of other opinionsLevel 7Prepare a method that will give reliable data from researching and comparing different sources Summarize findings in line graphs, with a line of best fit Explain patterns in results using scientific knowledgePredict the outcome of an investigation using prior knowledgeRearrange scientific calculationsRepresent chemical information in symbol equationsExplain the importance of scientific developmentsLevel 6Explain the importance of accuracy and repeatability in investigationsEvaluate investigations and suggest improvements to the method and describe why these changes would be effectiveExplain why a process happens using different ideas and with multiple reasonsRelate previous learning to new ideasIdentify differences and similarities between scientific processesRepresent chemical information in word equationsUse connective words to explain scientific processesLevel 5Describe simple Hazards and how to control themRepresent data in a line graph and use scientific key words in your conclusionIdentify independent, dependent and control variables in an investigationRecognise that evidence plays a vital role in developing scientific ideasDescribe a current application of science in the real world and identify what the outcomes might beDescribe a feature and explain its functionUse a model or detailed diagram to explain a scientific processLevel 4Select suitable equipment to carry out an investigationPlan to carry out a fair test and know why this is importantRecord observations and form valid conclusions from practical workDescribe a scientific process using correct scientific key wordsDiscuss the use of evidence in scientific thinking and ideasRecognise how the science done in the classroom is used in the real worldLevel 3Safely carry out practical activitiesRecord correct results in a results tableRepresent results in a bar chartMatch definitions to scientific keywordsRecognise scientific diagrams and add labelsState some scientific keywords related to a process
