Content Competencies: I. Origin and Structure of The Earth

This document provides a table of specification outlining the content and competencies that will be covered on a Grade 8 Science and Technology first quarter examination. It details 21 topics that will be assessed, which cover the origin and structure of the Earth, Earth materials and processes, and natural hazards and adaptation. For each topic, it identifies the levels of learning (revised Bloom's taxonomy) that will be evaluated, including remembering, understanding, analyzing, applying, evaluating, and creating. It also assigns point values to each topic, with 50% of the exam focusing on remembering, 30% on understanding, and 20% on analyzing.
