The Australian Curriculum, explained

Reading, writing, speaking and listening in Standard Australian English.

On ChalkBee: All three English strands, Foundation to Year 6. Language: phonics (CVC), sight words, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, apostrophes, clauses, verb tense consistency and text connectives. Literature: reading comprehension passages, story elements (character, setting, problem), figurative language (simile and metaphor), poetry devices (rhyme, alliteration, onomatopoeia), story sequencing and comparing fiction with non-fiction. Literacy: comprehension, handwriting, editing, and writing scaffolds for text type, purpose and structure (narrative, recount, information report, persuasive, procedure). Answer keys are fixed and hand-checked. Extended composition and speaking stay classroom-based.

Number, algebra, measurement, space and statistics, built for fluency and reasoning.

On ChalkBee: Every Mathematics content description Foundation to Year 10 is documented, and every Foundation to Year 6 description has a ready-made worksheet whose answer key is computed in code, so it is never wrong.

Understanding the biological, chemical, physical and earth-and-space sciences.

On ChalkBee: Worksheet sets across all four Science Understanding sub-strands, Foundation to Year 6: biological (plants, life cycles, animal groups, habitats, food chains, adaptations, classifying), chemical (materials, states of matter, reversible and irreversible changes), physical (forces, magnets, simple machines, light and sound, heat, electricity and energy), and earth and space (weather, seasons, day and night, rocks and soils, the solar system, extreme weather). Plus science inquiry vocabulary (predict, observe, record, conclude, fair tests) and 'how science works' sheets. Hands-on investigations stay classroom-based.

History, geography, civics and citizenship, and economics and business.

On ChalkBee: History: family history and 'then and now', local community history, First Australians, explorers, the First Fleet, colonial Australia, the gold rush and Federation, plus timelines and primary and secondary sources. Geography: Australian states, capitals, cities and neighbours, continents and oceans, mapping skills, climate, landforms and world capitals (also UK and USA). Civics and Citizenship (Years 3-6): rules and laws, local government, the three levels of government, democracy and voting, Australian symbols and national days, and being a citizen. Economics and Business (Years 5-6): needs and wants, goods and services, natural, human and capital resources, consumers and producers, opportunity cost, and saving and budgeting. Still growing: deeper Geography environments and inquiry-skill sheets.

Making and responding across five art forms.

On ChalkBee: Music theory printables: treble clef note names (E G B D F and F A C E), note and rest values, the musical alphabet, dynamics, tempo terms, instrument families and time signatures. Visual Arts printables: colour mixing (primary and secondary), warm and cool colours, the colour wheel, the elements of art, types of lines, 2D shapes and 3D forms, art mediums and tools. Plus colouring and colour-by-number activities. Answer keys are fixed and hand-checked. Dance, Drama and Media Arts are practical (making and performing), so they stay classroom-based.

Designing solutions and thinking computationally.

On ChalkBee: Digital Technologies printables: algorithms as step sequencing, branching (if-then decisions), parts of a computer, input and output devices, binary numbers (converted in code so answers are never wrong) and age-appropriate online safety. Design and Technologies printables: the design process (investigate, generate, produce, evaluate) and materials and their properties. Related pattern and sequencing worksheets also live under Critical Thinking. Answer keys are fixed and hand-checked. Hands-on making and real coding stay classroom-based.

Healthy, active living and personal and social wellbeing.

On ChalkBee: Personal, Social and Community Health printables: food groups and healthy eating, the body systems, the five senses, hygiene, dental health, exercise and sleep, road, water, personal and sun safety (Australia's Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide), naming feelings, manners, kindness, friendship and growth mindset. Factual sheets use fixed matching and fill-in answer keys; reflective wellbeing sheets use open writing prompts. Movement and Physical Activity is practical, so it stays classroom-based.

Communicating in a language other than English.

On ChalkBee: Planned: beginner vocabulary and alphabet tracing for popular languages.
