Coherent curriculum -- instructional materials are aligned to each learning objective. In a learning sequence - a course or unit - instructional materials prioritize and sequence essential skills and strategies in a logical, coherent way. The relationship between learning objectives and skills is clear to the learner.

Third-party content included in Extralearning is independently aligned with State and National standards by the respective publishers, and is searchable, as well.

Learning objectives and instructional materials in specific subjects - history, science, employment, and life skills - reinforce reading, language arts and mathematics.
