Manitoba Curriculum Alignment
Forward Education's classroom kits are aligned to the Manitoba Curriculum Framework of Outcomes. Alignments cover the Science specific learning outcomes and their clusters from Grade 3 through Grade 9, the Mathematics outcomes across Number, Patterns and Relations, Shape and Space, and Statistics and Probability, and the current Manitoba English Language Arts curriculum, which is in full implementation for Grades 9 to 12 and in pilot and voluntary implementation for Kindergarten to Grade 8 in 2026/27. Every alignment below was verified outcome by outcome against the official framework, so teachers in Winnipeg, Brandon, and every division across the province can see exactly where each lesson fits their curriculum.
How we count: Each percentage reflects how many individual standards are addressed by at least one lesson, project, or tutorial within that product. Because many of our activities are interdisciplinary, multiple lessons may align to the same standard, so your students will often have more than one opportunity to practice each expectation throughout the kit.
