K-12 Curriculum: Correlations

TN Standards in Science | TN Standards in Social Studies

NC Standards in Science | NC Standards in Social Studies

In order to help teachers and administrators choose lessons that best meet the needs of their students,
Tremont has correlated the lessons found in our curriculum, "Connecting People and Nature", to grade level academic standards for Tennessee and North Carolina. Please keep in mind that these correlations are a work in progress. We intend to assign correlations for all academic areas for grades 4-8 in each of the states that border Tennessee, as well as Ohio, Florida, and some other home states of our school groups. If you have any questions or comments, or if you would like us to e-mail you an Excel spreadsheet that can be sorted, please contact us.

Correlation Values: 1 = Lesson touches on this concept,
                                      2 = Lesson covers this concept in some depth,
                                      3 = Lesson thoroughly addresses this concept
