How matching worksHow Students Learn Science
Science learning combines subject knowledge with inquiry and investigation skills. Students need to explain ideas, interpret evidence and apply what they know, which is why memorising facts alone may not be enough.
Science Understanding
Core concepts across biological, chemical, physical, and Earth and space sciences, connected to the world students observe around them.
Science Inquiry
Asking questions, planning investigations, analysing data and constructing explanations from evidence. Students build these skills by using them.
Science as a Human Endeavour
Students connect ideas across science, recognise patterns and relationships, and apply their understanding in new contexts.
Lessons practise applying science knowledge to questions, investigations and evidence, so students can explain their thinking rather than rely on memorised definitions.
Science Coverage by Stage
Science learning develops across primary and secondary school, building knowledge alongside inquiry and investigation skills. Each year level needs a different kind of support.
Primary Science
Living things, Earth and space, materials, forces, weather and environments, with students learning to observe, ask questions and investigate.
Secondary Science
Biological systems, chemical and physical sciences, Earth and space, and environmental change, developed through practical inquiry and evidence.
Senior Sciences
Senior Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Environmental Science, with support tailored to the subjects and assessment requirements at each school.
Science Lesson Plans For Each Year
Explore week-by-week Australian Curriculum science lesson plans for Years 1 to 10, across biological, chemical, earth and space, and physical sciences.
The Math Make Smart Method
Find the Real Gap
When a student is finding a topic difficult, we look for the underlying concept or skill that needs support before moving on.
Matched to Your School Curriculum
Tutors adapt lessons to your child’s year level, school topics and Australian Curriculum requirements, including local state and territory context.
Practise the Question Type
Once the concept is secure, students practise interpreting data, explaining evidence and applying ideas to new questions.
Senior Science Subjects
Senior science subject choices and assessment requirements vary across schools and states. We tailor support to the course your child is studying.
Biology
Cells, genetics, evolution, ecosystems and the relationships between living things and their environments.
Chemistry
Atomic structure, bonding, chemical reactions, quantitative chemistry and equilibrium, taught with worked examples and problem solving.
Physics
Mechanics, energy, waves, electricity and magnetism, with support in the mathematical skills used to solve physics problems.
Earth & Environmental
Earth and space sciences, climate systems and environmental science, including Australian environments and sustainability.
