Australian Curriculum v9 · Science & Geography
Ausgeology.
Interactive geology lessons, one process at a time.
A growing set of hands-on lessons mapped to the Australian Curriculum (Version 9). Each one runs on the same rhythm: predict what should happen, observe what actually does, then explain why. One lesson is ready now. The rest are on the way.
Australian Curriculum v9
Geology, Year 4 to Year 10 — one discipline across the year levels
Year 8 Science AC9S8U03
Around your plate
Walk the four edges of the Australian Plate, one convergent, one more convergent, one transform, one divergent, and build the scientific evidence for the theory of plate tectonics as you go.
Year 4 Science AC9S4U02
The water cycle
Where water comes from and how it moves through the sky, the landscape and the ocean: precipitation, evaporation and condensation, and how it carves the land along the way.
Year 8 Science AC9S8U04
The rock cycle
How igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks form and transform over very different timescales, and how that cycle produces the mineral and energy resources we depend on.
Year 8 Geography (HASS)
Landforms and landscapes
How tectonic, volcanic and water processes build up and wear down the landforms and landscapes around us, and why people value and live among them.
Year 9 Science AC9S9U03
The carbon cycle and Earth's spheres
How carbon moves between the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere through processes like weathering, combustion, photosynthesis and respiration.
Year 10 Science AC9S10U04
Global systems
How energy and matter flow between Earth's four spheres to drive global patterns, including the climate system and the changes it is undergoing.
