Claude now has access to a comprehensive Knowledge Graph of K-12 education standards, learning components, and learning progressions. This integration allows you to work with authoritative academic standards data directly in your conversations, making curriculum planning, lesson development, and standards alignment more reliable and efficient.

​
What this means for you

Instead of manually looking up standards codes or hunting through lengthy documents, you can simply ask Claude questions about specific standards and get immediate, accurate information. Claude can help you understand what a standard means, break it down into smaller learning components, and even identify which skills students should master before tackling new concepts.

​
How to use it

After setting up the Knowledge Graph integration in Claude, simply mention a standard code (like 5.NBT.A.2 or RL.4.1) in your conversation, and it will automatically access the official information. You can ask for lesson ideas, assessment questions, prerequisite skills, or explanations in plain language.

​
Example requests

​
Getting lesson ideas

  • “I’m a teacher in Iowa. Generate three project ideas that address W.3.4.”
  • “Create a hands-on activity for my 5th graders that covers 5.NF.B.6 in Maine.”

​
Creating assessments

  • “Today in class, we will be covering the Texas standard 111.40.c.3.F. Can you please create an exit ticket for my students?”
  • “Make a quick formative assessment for California standard 3.MD.C.7.”

​
Supporting struggling students

  • “I am a 4th-grade teacher in California. A student in my new class is struggling with the concepts related to 4.OA.A.3. Which prior standards should I focus on with them?”
  • “What foundational skills should a student master before we tackle Illinois Standard 6.RP.A.1?”

​
Getting extra practice

  • “I am an 8th-grade teacher in Maryland. Please create extra practice problems to address the learning components of 8.F.B.4.”

​
What happens behind the scenes

Claude uses three specialized Knowledge Graph tools to get you the most accurate information:

​
1. Standard lookup

Finds the official text and details for any standards code you mention, ensuring you’re working with the exact wording relevant to your state.

​
2. Learning components (Mathematics)

Breaks down broad math standards into specific, teachable skills. Developed through collaboration between Achievement Network experts and dozens of experienced math teachers, these components help to target areas where students are struggling or to create focused practice activities.

​
3. Learning progressions (Mathematics)

Identifies which standards come before or after others in a student’s learning journey using the Student Achievement Partners (SAP) Coherence Map. Perfect for understanding prior standards or planning what comes next in your curriculum sequence.
