The common assessments for science this year require the students to know and understand the concepts. Students will need to apply their knowledge to the questions.
For example: Students will not be asked: “What are the rows across the periodic table called?” answer: periods.
Rather, students will be asked “What is the purpose for scientists to use periods on the periodic table?”
answer: to know how many electrons an element has.
Therefore, students will need to know where the periods are on the periodic table and know their purpose.
