STANDARD and COMMON CORE ALIGNMENT

A standard has three parts: content (what students should know), process (the skills students must have), and performance (how, and how well, they must be able to do what's being asked of them). The Teaching Point program is designed to prepare teachers to deliver effective instruction in all three parts.

Teaching Point instructional support materials are also designed to work well with any textbook you choose for the course since they are aligned to the same standards as the textbooks. Each Teaching Point set of lesson plans and materials are aligned to national and major state standards to which all textbooks are aligned (where standards exist for a particular course). The standard alignments for Teaching Point materials are available for review for each of our over 120 courses (view list on "Catalog" page) and may be accessed through each course page by clicking on the "click here for samples" link.

Teaching Point materials are essentially aligned to Common Core Standards by virtue of these multiple state and national alignments.
