The Provincial Scientific Literacy assessments will be in grades 4, 6 and 8 during April-May 2024. While the best preparation is for students to actively do science and apply their skills, it is also important to practice reading and answering the types of questions found on the assessment. A reminder that, during the provincial assessment, students in French Immersion can choose to answer the French or English version of the question. As practice questions are found or developed, they will be added to this page.
