In these grade-level sessions, the participants will learn how the California Science Test (CAST) Interim Assessments (IA) support the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) by providing teachers with frequent data on student progress in key scientific concepts and skills, specially aligned with the CA NGSS Framework, allowing them to monitor student learning and adjust instruction to better target the three-dimensional nature of the standards (including science and engineering practices, disciplinary core ideas, and cross-cutting concepts) throughout the school year.
