What educators are saying

These science assessments are really spot on! Great questions that really align to the standards. I love that I get both the printable version and the Google Forms, which gives me so many options. Nice variety of questions too!

My students love using this resource, it lets them do some hands on work while still learning and practicing the skill.

Description

This bundle will save 20% on my middle school NGSS science assessments. Each DCI includes both printable pdf and Google Forms. This bundle will cover all the standards for NGSS Middle School Science, organized by DCI. These are great for assessment after each unit of study or as review and test prep for end-of-the-year testing.

Teachers Love This Resource! ❤️❤️❤️

Alisha ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied

So happy to have found this great bundle for assessing science standards. This set helped assess my students in science. I loved the self-checking forms. I also used the printable forms. It is nice to have choices.

Jennifer ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ These quizzes were perfect for assessing and for test review before the big state test. I used the google forms in google classroom, but I used the pdf for a practice test. Both were useful and accurate. It was nice to have options.

Jack ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Getting ready for spring testing and these assessments were helpful for prep and practice.

Standards

NGSSMS-ESS1-4

Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth’s 4.6-billion-year-old history. Emphasis is on how analyses of rock formations and the fossils they contain are used to establish relative ages of major events in Earth’s history. Examples of Earth’s major events could range from being very recent (such as the last Ice Age or the earliest fossils of homo sapiens) to very old (such as the formation of Earth or the earliest evidence of life). Examples can include the formation of mountain chains and ocean basins, the evolution or extinction of particular living organisms, or significant volcanic eruptions. Assessment does not include recalling the names of specific periods or epochs and events within them.

NGSSMS-ESS2-3

Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions. Examples of data include similarities of rock and fossil types on different continents, the shapes of the continents (including continental shelves), and the locations of ocean structures (such as ridges, fracture zones, and trenches). Paleomagnetic anomalies in oceanic and continental crust are not assessed.

NGSSMS-ESS3-2

Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their effects. Emphasis is on how some natural hazards, such as volcanic eruptions and severe weather, are preceded by phenomena that allow for reliable predictions, but others, such as earthquakes, occur suddenly and with no notice, and thus are not yet predictable. Examples of natural hazards can be taken from interior processes (such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions), surface processes (such as mass wasting and tsunamis), or severe weather events (such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods). Examples of data can include the locations, magnitudes, and frequencies of the natural hazards. Examples of technologies can be global (such as satellite systems to monitor hurricanes or forest fires) or local (such as building basements in tornado-prone regions or reservoirs to mitigate droughts).

NGSSMS-PS3-4

Plan an investigation to determine the relationships among the energy transferred, the type of matter, the mass, and the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles as measured by the temperature of the sample. Examples of experiments could include comparing final water temperatures after different masses of ice melted in the same volume of water with the same initial temperature, the temperature change of samples of different materials with the same mass as they cool or heat in the environment, or the same material with different masses when a specific amount of energy is added. Assessment does not include calculating the total amount of thermal energy transferred.

NGSSMS-ESS3-1

Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth’s mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes. Emphasis is on how these resources are limited and typically non-renewable, and how their distributions are significantly changing as a result of removal by humans. Examples of uneven distributions of resources as a result of past processes include but are not limited to petroleum (locations of the burial of organic marine sediments and subsequent geologic traps), metal ores (locations of past volcanic and hydrothermal activity associated with subduction zones), and soil (locations of active weathering and/or deposition of rock).
