Teach a useful sky guideYear 2 Science · T1 W7–8 · Teacher · Teacher / Start

Choose one 15-minute route, with optional 25–35 minute extensions. Times are flexible estimates, not a tested pace. Prepare broad paper labels and a pencil; the complete records are in each script. Read every prerequisite and revisit it if unfamiliar. Day numbers are resource order, not today's calendar date.

Keep a first idea before teaching. Offer usual communication, exact dictation or a helper directed by the child. A helper moving the model is that helper's actual operation. Record actual support rather than assigning a learner type. One response does not demonstrate every physical skill.

No Sun viewing, telescope, camera, lamp or compulsory night task. Choose supplied indoor notes and unshaded paper models. Any separate wanted real viewing needs adult review of local conditions and participation; never make finding an object compulsory.

Ten complete starts

• Day 31: Pick the notebook for your question
• Day 32: Keep the gap in a longer record
• Day 33: A position needs a steady reference
• Day 34: Two views of one night question
• Day 35: A planet and its background
• Day 36: Known, not seen, not recorded and not tried
• Day 37: A turn, a month and a year
• Day 38: Plan a safe record someone can keep
• Day 39: Give a reader a trustworthy sky guide
• Day 40: Keep what the evidence can support

Preparation and evidence

Use the six ordinary aids, twenty varied examples, home offers and projects. All are complete original practice stories. A suggested earlier lesson is a prerequisite to check, not proof the child has met it.

Select one eligible assessment source after its teaching. Do not administer all 32 components as a default sitting. Capture the exact first response, source and actual support before feedback. Our descriptive working notes are not Queensland grades. Keep source-based interpretation separate from observed making, measuring or sky conduct.
