Grade 8 students in Massachusetts, including our students at HMS, will take the annual Science MCAS exam. The Grade 8 Science MCAS exam is a cumulative test, assessing all science concepts studied in Grades 6-8. Given the cumulative nature of the test, Grade 8 students spend some time each spring reviewing previously learned concepts and practicing test questions.
This year, to support students in their MCAS review, we will be using an on-line study tool known as “Study Island.” Study Island features subject specific lessons, which include sample test questions and games to engage students in review of content. Students will complete lessons independently as part of their routine homework assignments. Study Island is completely web-based, which allows students to access the program from any computer with Internet connection and standard web browser.
