Middle School Earth Science FINAL EXAM for NGSS-ESS

50 Multiple Choice Question Earth Science FINAL EXAM – mimics standardized tests! Also can be used as a pre-assessment.
 
Topics Include:
  • Moon phases/eclipses
  • Tides
  • Scale of objects in the solar system
  • Gravity in the solar system
  • Earth’s motions in space
  • Weathering and erosion
  • Rock cycle
  • Plate tectonics
  • Weather and climate
 
NGSS Standards Covered: MS-ESS1-1, MS-ESS1-2, MS-ESS1-3, MS-ESS1-4, MS-ESS2-1, MS-ESS2-2, MS-ESS2-3, MS-ESS2-4, MS-ESS2-5
 
This final and cumulative test assesses the essential understandings of middle school NGSS Earth and space science topics. Some questions include simple diagrams to analyze and mimic the way NGSS-based standardized tests generally ask about these topics. There are 50 questions.
 
Less copies and easy to correct – save time with our test packet format! This version of the test is designed to have a test question packet (3 pages front/back) and a separate answer sheet (1 page). You only need to make one class set of copies of the test question packet because it can be reused class-to-class. Students ONLY write on their provided answer sheet.

  • NGSS MS-ESS1-1: Develop and use a model of the Earth-sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses, and seasons.
  • NGSS MS-ESS1-2: Develop and use a model to describe the role of gravity in the motions within galaxies and the solar system.
  • NGSS MS-ESS1-3: Analyze and interpret data to determine scale properties of objects in the solar system.
  • NGSS MS-ESS1-4: Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth’s 4.6-billion-year-old history.
  • NGSS MS-ESS2-1: Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materials and the flow of energy that drives this process.
  • NGSS MS-ESS2-2: Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales.
  • NGSS MS-ESS2-3: Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of past plate motions.
  • NGSS MS-ESS2-4: Develop a model to describe the cycling of water through Earth’s systems driven by energy from the sun and the force of gravity.
  • NGSS MS-ESS2-5: Collect data to provide evidence for how the motions and complex interactions of air masses result in changes in weather conditions.
