During our pilot school think-aloud interviews, we engaged students in discussions about science and their overall learning experiences. These conversations highlighted the importance of listening to students' perspectives - they have so much wisdom to share! #ScienceEducation

We recently had the opportunity to conduct another round of think-aloud interviews with some amazing students from the schools piloting our new science assessments. Read the quotes below to hear how students reacted to using feedback in their science assessment!

When we dive into assessment data and thoughtfully incorporate what we learn into our teaching strategies, we create a learning experience that resonates with every student.

Thank you to our friends at @CenterPointEd for collaborating on this resource! https://t.co/MI50K28TZQ

We were lucky enough to get a chance to speak with students again at our pilot school visit to do think alouds and get their thoughts on our new Interim Science Assessments. We are always happy to hear that our assessments make students think in new and challenging ways! 💡🚀✨

[CenterPoint Ed @CenterPointEd]

We're thrilled to share more behind the scenes insights from another visit to one of the schools piloting our new Interim Science Assessment. Join the excitement! Follow us on social media throughout the week to learn more! 🚀🌟
