Finding patterns in data
在数据中寻找规律
Description
Analyse and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth's features, recognising that many features result from processes that occur over long periods
Mastery Evidence
- Use a map to identify patterns in the location of mountains, rivers, lakes, and other features
- Describe patterns observed (e.g. mountains in chains, rivers flow from high to low ground)
- Explain that Earth's features result from processes like erosion, volcanic activity, and plate movement over long periods
Assessment Prompt
Can your child look at a map and notice patterns like mountains running in lines, rivers flowing to the sea, or deserts clustered near the equator?
