ONPAR
ONPAR classroom assessments are aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards for middle school. They challenge students to think deeply about science ideas while engaging in science and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts. The digital assessments offer automatic scoring and reporting for teachers and students to help inform next steps and drive learning. The paper assessments provide low-tech flexibility, and come with rubrics and answer keys to help teachers assess student understanding.
