Does Wyoming test science in grade 1?
There is no state science test in grade 1 or grade 2; the WY-TOPP summative science assessment is administered in grades 4, 8, and 10. The standards on this page are still what grade 1 teachers in Wyoming teach, and they are what later science testing is built on.
Which standards does grade 1 science in Wyoming follow?
Wyoming follows the Wyoming Content and Performance Standards for Science (2023 Science WYCPS). All 4 of this grade’s standards are listed further down this page with their official codes.
How long are the practice tests?
Each of the six practice tests has 14 questions and no timer. A first grader can work through one in about ten to fifteen minutes, and there is no clock counting down while they think.
My child cannot read the questions yet. Can we still use this?
Yes, and that is how most families use it. The questions are written short and plain so you can read them aloud, and the explanation after each answer is written for you, not for the child. It says why the right answer is right and suggests something you can try together.
Is any of this free?
Yes. Every practice test and quiz on this page is free and needs no login. Progress is saved in your own browser and nowhere else.
What is the fastest way to use this page?
Do practice test 1 together, without helping. Look at the breakdown by science area, pick the weakest one, and do that skill quiz. There are 7 quizzes, one per idea, so you can work on the shaky part instead of everything at once.

Wyoming Grade 1 Science: study questions
How should I choose a Grade 1 science study target?
Start with the course or standards reference for this state. Explain one idea before doing its related practice, then use the feedback to decide what needs another example.
Official source ↗Are these activities official state assessments?
These are independently published learning resources. A practice score does not predict or replace an official state score. Use the directions in each activity and consult your school for official testing and accommodation rules.
