West Virginia Curriculum Alignment
Forward Education's hands-on STEM kits are aligned to West Virginia's adopted standards: the West Virginia College- and Career-Readiness Standards for Science (Policy 2520.3C), for Mathematics (Policy 2520.2B), and for English Language Arts (Policy 2520.1A), and the CSTA Computer Science Standards. Our alignment uses West Virginia's own codes and language exactly as published in State Board Policy 2520 by the West Virginia 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 West Virginia 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.
