Many fifth grade students receive low science achievement scores on standardized assessments.
My opinion- In many elementary schools across the nation, it is necessary for students in fifth grade to pass the reading and math sections of their state's standardized assessment in order to be promoted to the next grade level. With this, many educators that teach fifth grade focus on the two subject areas. This leaves science and social studies to be taught sparingly, leaving the students unfamiliar with the subjects. This unfamiliarity poses the problem of students failing these subjects.
Great job Science Academic Achievement on your blog!! Your problem statement looks great! Remember that since this is a blog you don't have to include "My opinion." It is assumed it is your opinion unless you include a citation. Blogs are meant to be opinion pieces!!
