The following curriculum outcomes for the three lessons are taken from the Australian Curriculum.

Lesson 1

  • ACTDIK001 – Identify, use and explore digital systems (hardware and software components) for a purpose
  • ACTDIP004 – Follow, describe and represent a sequence of steps and decisions (algorithms) needed to solve simple problems
  • ACMMG042 – Describe and draw two-dimensional shapes, with and without digital technologies
  • ACSSU033 – A push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape
  • ACSIS038 – Participate in guided investigations to explore and answer questions

Lesson 2

  • ACTDIK001 – Identify, use and explore digital systems (hardware and software components) for a purpose
  • ACTDIP004 – Follow, describe and represent a sequence of steps and decisions (algorithms) needed to solve simple problems
  • ACMMG010 – Describe position and movement
  • ACMMG023 – Give and follow directions to familiar locations
  • ACSIS042 – Represent and communicate observations and ideas in a variety of ways

Lesson 3

  • ACMMG019 – Measure and compare the lengths and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units
