Living Worlds: increasing scientific literacy

The NSW Science and Technology curriculum challenges students to think like scientists by exploring the complexity and beauty of the Living World. A key focus is describing how living things can be grouped based on observable features and to distinguish between different life cycles.

Australian Environmental Education offers a suite of hands-on programs specifically designed to bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world observation. By integrating these programs you can provide your students with authentic opportunities to use scientific tools to investigate the relationship of organisms within their local ecosystems.

The Australian Environmental Education programs programs below have a key focus on life cycles and classification and are perfect for this topic.
