Earth's structure, the water cycle, and the sky as an observable system with patterns that can be predicted.
These are the statements the Science Year 7 syllabus makes about Earth and Space. Dux records each one against the questions you answer, so you can see which of them you have actually been tested on and which have never been asked.
Structure of the Earth - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Rocks, minerals and soils - Earth and Space, Year 7.
The water cycle - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Renewable and non-renewable resources - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Day, night and the seasons - Earth and Space, Year 7.
The solar system - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Phases of the Moon - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Natural events: earthquakes and volcanoes - Earth and Space, Year 7.
Year 7 Assessment Task Shape is 50 marks in 75 minutes. Questions on Earth and Space are not one shape repeated: the command word decides what the marker is looking for, and the mark value decides how much of it. These are the ones Science Year 7 uses.
Dux writes practice for this module in exactly these shapes, so the drill is the same task the paper sets — not a general knowledge quiz with the module name on it.
Earth and Space is module 4 of 4 in Science Year 7. Students routinely lose marks because a question spans two modules, so the neighbouring modules are worth reading next to this one.
Dux diagnoses Science Year 7 dot point by dot point, then writes questions in the shape this course marks. Written answers come back marked against the bands.
