observations, findings and ideas can be communicated for an identified purpose and audience by using scientific vocabulary and digital tools as appropriate
- discussing how to communicate scientific findings, for example presenting their results from their investigations of the properties of solids, liquids and gases to share their predictions, methods, results and conclusions with their peers by writing simple reports, producing collages or drawings that represent examples and properties of solids, liquids and gases, or creating a story that involves characters made from different states of matter, for example a character made of water who can turn into ice or steam depending on the situation
- constructing an advertisement for a particular audience that describes why a high-friction surface is appropriate as flooring
- writing a life-cycle story from the perspective of a living thing, including appropriate scientific terms for life stages
- using digital tools to create a poster, song, slideshow or performance to illustrate the causes of soil erosion
- creating an advertisement to promote a new insulated container design to parents of primary-school-aged children
