Oregon Standards Alignment: Science, Mathematics, and English Language Arts
Forward Education's hands-on STEM kits are aligned to Oregon's adopted standards: the 2022 Oregon Science Standards (based on the Next Generation Science Standards with Oregon's grade-specific organization), the 2021 Oregon Mathematics Standards (Oregon's focused rewrite organized into Numeric, Algebraic, Geometric, Proportional, and Data Reasoning domains), the Oregon English Language Arts and Literacy Standards (2019), and the CSTA Computer Science Standards. Our alignment uses Oregon's own codes and language exactly as published by the Oregon Department of Education. Each alignment was built by reviewing individual lesson activities against specific standards, one lesson at a time, across all six products in our kit ecosystem. Teachers in Oregon can confidently connect our resources to the standards they are already teaching.
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.
