| Product | Allow appropriate evidence such as practical demonstration, portfolio, table, report, poster, presentation, field notes or written response. Assess agricultural accuracy, procedure, evidence, collaboration and justification. | ||
| Success Criteria | Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation. | ||
| Homework | Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator. | ||
