“All states and schools will have challenging and clear standards of achievement and accountability for all children, and effective strategies for reaching those standards.” — US Department of Education


The Common Core State Standards (National Education Standards) were developed to provide a common set of established knowledge and skill benchmarks for K-12 students throughout the nation.


“These standards represent the best effort so far to transform today's patchwork quilt of 50 sets of state standards into one set of strong, consistent expectations for what all students should know and learn,” said American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten.


FIDM's free classroom presentations in Arizona, California, and Washington comply with the Common Core State Standards. Summaries, Presentation Questions and Answers, and Presentation Classroom Activities are also available for your information.
