Conceptualising Concepts in Primary Science

Presenter: Anthea Ponte & Denise Rule, Department for Education

How do science concepts develop in young minds? How do they build across year levels? And how can teachers design learning that moves beyond facts to deep, transferable understanding?

This practical, curriculum-aligned workshop invites primary educators to shift from topic coverage to conceptual teaching. Using the Australian Curriculum: Science V9 as our anchor, we explore how key scientific ideas evolve over time, how to identify common student misconceptions, and how to design learning that builds conceptual understanding through investigation, reasoning, and reflection.
