Building Toward Future Arizona Science Assessments

While Arizona does not administer a state science assessment in 2nd grade, the concepts learned now form the foundation for science tests in later grades. Strong understanding of life science, earth science, and physical science in 2nd grade prepares Arizona students for the AASA science assessment that begins in 4th grade.
