Teaching a full Level 2 (Grades 11-12) Computer Science capstone course in Oklahoma can feel overwhelming — this is the most advanced CS coursework in the OAS-CS progression, covering AI algorithms, recursion, data structures, multi-platform development, and full software development lifecycle. This bundle solves that: every Oklahoma OAS-CS Level 2 standard, all 23 of them,…
Teaching a full Level 1 (Grades 9-10) Computer Science course in Oklahoma can feel overwhelming — especially if you’re covering advanced topics like control-structure trade-offs, network scalability, and intellectual property law without a ready-made curriculum. This bundle solves that: every Oklahoma OAS-CS Level 1 standard, all 28 of them, in one no-prep, print-and-go collection. Watch…
Level 2 covers Oklahoma’s grades 11-12 computer science standards — the CS-specialty capstone year, drawing from CSTA’s Level 3B national band. Like Level 1, this is a clean match: all 22 Level 2 standards trace directly to a CSTA 3B standard, several of them word for word. Here’s the full standard-by-standard breakdown, with a downloadable…
Level 1 covers Oklahoma’s grades 9-10 computer science standards, which draw from CSTA’s Level 3A national band. This is the cleanest alignment we’ve found in this series: all 28 Level 1 standards trace directly back to a CSTA 3A standard — no Oklahoma-only additions, no gaps. Here’s the full standard-by-standard breakdown, with a downloadable spreadsheet….
Grade 8 closes out Oklahoma’s 6-8 CS band before students move into Level 1 (grades 9-10). Of the 22 Grade 8 standards, 19 have a direct CSTA 6-8 match, 2 are loose matches, and just 1 has no CSTA equivalent at all — the tightest alignment to the national framework of any middle-school grade we’ve…
Grade 7 sits in the middle of Oklahoma’s 6-8 CS band, which draws from CSTA’s Level 2 (grades 6-8) national standards. Of the three middle-school grades, Grade 7 turns out to be the closest match to CSTA of any we’ve compared so far — most standards are near-verbatim, with only two genuine Oklahoma-specific additions. Here’s…
Grade 6 sits at the start of Oklahoma’s 6-8 CS band, which pulls from CSTA’s “Level 2” grade 6-8 standards rather than the elementary 1B band used in Grades 3-5. That shift shows up in the comparison: Oklahoma’s 21 Grade 6 standards track CSTA closely for programming and hardware, but start pulling away from CSTA…
Oklahoma doesn’t write its computer science standards from scratch — the Oklahoma Academic Standards for Computer Science (OAS-CS, February 2023) are built directly on top of the CSTA K-12 Computer Science Standards, the national framework maintained by the Computer Science Teachers Association. But “built on top of” doesn’t mean “copied word for word.” This post…
