Derivita, aligned to Colorado’s Mathematics Standards.
Standard-by-standard alignment to the Colorado Academic Standards for Mathematics, from Grade 6 through high school, reviewed by subject-matter experts.
Aligned to Colorado's revised high school mathematics standards, approved by the State Board of Education in May 2026: all 147 standards across 19 groupings.
Open-response practice that helps build the reasoning CMAS (grades 6 through 8) and the PSAT and SAT ask of students.
Colorado alignment, course by course.
Derivita aligns its expert-authored questions to the Colorado Academic Standards for Mathematics, including the revised high school standards approved in May 2026, breaking each standard into the teachable skills behind it. Every skill is backed by auto-graded Derivita content that runs inside your district's LMS.
Courses covered
Middle school
Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8
High school
All 147 revised high school standards, across 19 groupings
Beyond the standards
Precalculus and Calculus content for advanced courses
State assessment
Colorado students take CMAS mathematics in grades 3 through 8, and the PSAT 9, PSAT 10, and SAT in high school.
Derivita's open-response questions are graded for mathematical equivalence, so students practice constructing and justifying answers rather than choosing from a list, the kind of reasoning these assessments ask for.
How the alignment works
Standard to skill to question. Each standard breaks down into the skills it asks of students, and each skill links to Derivita questions that practice and assess it.

Questions Colorado districts ask us.
Is Derivita aligned to the Colorado Academic Standards for Mathematics?
Yes. Derivita provides standard-by-standard alignment to the Colorado Academic Standards for Mathematics, from Grade 6 through high school, reviewed by subject-matter experts. Each standard is broken into the teachable skills behind it, and each skill is backed by auto-graded Derivita questions.
Is Derivita aligned to Colorado's revised high school math standards?
Yes. Derivita is aligned to the revised high school mathematics standards the Colorado State Board of Education approved in May 2026, covering all 147 standards across 19 groupings, so districts can plan around the new standards now.
How does Derivita support students preparing for CMAS and the SAT?
Derivita's open-response questions are graded for mathematical equivalence, so students practice constructing and justifying their own answers rather than choosing from a list. That daily practice helps build the reasoning CMAS asks of students in grades 6 through 8, and the PSAT and SAT ask in high school.
Does Derivita work with the curriculum and LMS our Colorado district already uses?
Yes. Derivita enhances the curriculum a district has already chosen, with questions aligned to curricula such as Illustrative Mathematics, Open Up Resources, and Big Ideas Math. It runs natively inside Canvas, Schoology, Google Classroom, D2L, Moodle, and Blackboard, so students and teachers don't need a separate login.
