Tool 53: Aligning With Learning Standards

In Sections 3 (Partnerships & Collaboration) and 4 (Program Delivery), you learned about the importance of aligning activities with local and state learning standards and the Common Core State Standards. Intentionally integrating learning standards into activities supports learning and youth development.

Directions: Use or adapt this worksheet to ensure your activities and lessons align with learning standards. You may use this tool in conjunction with Tool 73: Intentional Activities to develop and implement learning components in every program activity or project. Staff should also reference the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and English Language Arts in addition to other state learning standards by visiting their local department of education website.
