Elementary School General Science Assessment

Introducing our comprehensive grade 5 science pre-test! This valuable resource is designed to test students' knowledge of key science concepts to inform lesson planning and give comparative results.

Our pre-test covers a range of topics, including Structure and Properties of Matter, Physical and Chemical Changes, Plant and Animal Needs, Matter in Ecosystems, Interactions of Earth's Major Systems, and The Solar System and Beyond. With 54 questions, our pre-test provides a comprehensive assessment of students' knowledge and is a valuable tool for identifying areas of strength and weakness.

In addition to the pre-test itself, we also provide an answer key, a paper copy, and a google forms copy. This allows teachers to easily administer the test and review results with their students.
