The performance assessments were created by Paul Andersen and other science teachers to provide quality example items for each of the 194 performance expectations in the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The assessments cover all grades from Kindergarten through High School.
The as-published state of the Performance Assessment items on the Wonder of Science site (and, thus, what is hosted on Problem-Attic) is preliminary: many are first drafts and have have to be officially used with students. The eventual goal of the performance assessments is to have exemplar versions with rubrics and sample student work.
