Achieve Releases Classroom Sample Assessment Tasks for the NGSS

Achieve recently released a new resource for science educators that shows examples of how content and practices from the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and the Common Core State Standards(CCSS) in Mathematics can be assessed together. The Classroom Sample Assessment Tasks provide nine sample tasks targeted to middle and high school levels. Each task focuses on a specific context or storyline and includes multiple components that work together to partially or fully assess a bundle of chosen standards.CCSS-ELA/Literacy alignments are also included. Additional tasks, such as those for elementary grade levels, will be posted as they become available.
