Below we present links to the science standards (Earth & Space, Life Sciences, Physical Science, Nature of Science) developed by the Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning (McREL). They surveyed and consolidated many national- and state-level efforts to identify what K-12 students should know and be able to do in a variety of subject areas. They also consulted over 100 national- and state-level documents that address standards and benchmarks in various subject domains. Click here to see their original document.

On this page, content alignment is presented in two ways: Sorted by science topic (directly below) and Sorted by standards (click here) Each section of this website is keyed to educational content standards, as well.
