Prior to this year science was not assessed outside of ACT Aspire, so we did not have dedicated time outside of literacy and math for science. It was embedded into literacy and math.
This year science has 45 minutes daily in its own block. We follow NGSS and use its assessment guidance to create our own CFA’s.
I personally use the Wonder of Science to create material. It is an amazing resource!

Looks like a robust and wonderful resource, @Brandie! What ages are you using it with?

We have 30-40 minutes daily and assess in many ways formative and summative. My students love science. They love thinking like scientists to solve problems. They love experiments and changing variables and trying again. Most of our science is hands on but we also do a lot with vocabulary and writing to solve a science problems. Are biggest units in first grade our sound, light, and animals. We end the animal unit with a first grade zoo and my students present all they have learned about animals, habitats, and needs with a trifold posters, and oral presentation. It is one of the most amazing days of the year!

I have 30 minutes, four days a week. I am self contained so if I have a longer activity, I can swap time.

Hey Erika! I’m in a K-4 building. It is one of my very favorite, hands-on application of the content in NGSS.
We don’t have a science curriculum so ours is “home grown”, but the need for more rigor and focus on the engineering standards called for something more.
We’ve used several lessons and assessments. I’m happy to help if you need!

We don’t get any time! I mainly incorporate it through math and literacy.
