CALIFORNIA Science Standards Review from Buckle Down

Test prep for science aligned to the California Content Standards

What Your Colleagues Say

I asked every teacher in our summer school program 'Did the Buckle Down materials help you meet your goals, or do you need another program?' Not one teacher asked for other materials. Buckle Down was exactly the right choice.

Provide the boost your students need to master California standards with a comprehensive review of testable California Science Content Standards for grades 5 and 8. Build test-taking confidence and strategies using practice tests and end-of-lesson practice sections, including valuable practice with multiple-choice questions. Units include Investigation and Experimentation; Physical Science; Earth and Space Science; and Life Science.

  • Practice tests include reference sheets, periodic tables, and formulas.
  • Difficult or unfamiliar terms are highlighted in the "Words to Know" section at the beginning of each review, emphasized in bold-face throughout, and defined in the glossary.
  • The "Keys to Keep" section in each review summarizes main ideas for quick reference.
  • Buckle Down materials are in full compliance with California Guidelines on Academic Preparation for State Assessments.

Every student book comes with a FREE Form A Practice Test (pretest) and Form B Practice Test (posttest).
