US state standards AI for US state standards, district by district.
Plan lessons around TEKS, Florida B.E.S.T., Virginia SOL, NGSS and other US state standards with SparkSchool AI, with your district’s pacing guide in context.
Every US state sets its own learning standards, and districts add pacing guides and adopted materials on top. SparkSchool AI lets teachers plan from the exact state standard and district context they work with, whether that is the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, Florida’s B.E.S.T. Standards, the Virginia Standards of Learning or NGSS-based science standards.

Illustrative example · Review before classroom use
01
Bring your state’s standard
Paste the standard code and text, for example a TEKS student expectation or a Virginia SOL.
02
Add district context
Include the pacing guide, adopted curriculum and the assessment format your district uses.
03
Plan for every learner
Prepare scaffolds for English learners and students with IEPs, plus extension for students ready to go further.
Which state standards can I plan for?
Any state or district framework, including the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), Florida’s B.E.S.T. Standards, the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL), New York State Next Generation Learning Standards and states using the Common Core or NGSS. Paste the standard you teach and SparkSchool plans from it.
How does science planning work with NGSS?
NGSS connects disciplinary core ideas, science and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts. Supply the performance expectation and grade band, and SparkSchool drafts a phenomenon-led sequence in which students use the three dimensions together rather than memorising vocabulary.
How do I keep resources aligned with my district?
Add your pacing guide, adopted materials and local assessment format to the task, and review the draft against your state’s published standard. SparkSchool supports teaching with state standards; it is not approved by any state education agency.
