Associating activities to Educational Standards

October 01, 2018

You can associate any Boardmaker activity in your My Activities list to your state education standards or to the Common Core. 
Why? 
Associating standards to activities makes it easier for you and other Boardmaker Community members to find standards aligned activities and track student progress related to standards.
 
Note: In order to associate your state’s standards, you will have to choose your state in the My Settings menu.
Note: When you Upload activities to Boardmaker Online, you will be given the option to associate standards during the upload process.
