I’ve done some searching, but I keep finding only general responses - like what is expected during the sum of K-12, or what is expected in all of elementary school. Where can I find a break down of what kids should be learning in each grade of elementary school in New York State? I’m looking into getting into teaching and would like to have a better understanding of the specifics about what skills should be taught when. Thanks!
