Prufrock Press Products Meet National Standards
Many of Prufrock’s award-winning products meet the new Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in Mathematics and English Language Arts and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). On this page, you’ll find free, easy-to-use guides that pinpoint exactly which standards line up with the products you own and those you’re considering purchasing.
Each document lists standards for the grade levels in each book. Because many of Prufrock’s products are full of rigorous, challenging content, you’ll find that some of the standards for higher grade levels are included in these alignment sheets. The documents are broken down into lessons or other important elements of the books, making your job of aligning your curriculum with the CCSS and NGSS that much easier!
Please note . . .
Please note that the content of our products has not changed to reflect the standards’ requirements. Instead, we hired content-area experts to determine how our high-quality products already met the new standards.
Please let us know if there are any books not on this list that you’d like to see aligned by e-mailing editorial@prufrock.com.
As this is an ongoing process, we encourage you to check back frequently to see which books are in our lineup for the alignment process.
