Parent Guides to the Common Core State Standards
The National Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) partnered with the writers of the Common Core State Standards to create grade by grade guides for parents that reflect the Common Core State Standards. Individual guides were created for grades K-8 and two were created for grades 9-12, one focusing on 9-12 English language arts and one focusing on 9-12 mathematics. All guides can be viewed online at www.pta.org/4446.htm.
