Tag an individual question to standards
To tag your question to standards for student growth tracking: after creating a question place your cursor in the "Tag Standards" field at the bottom of the question tile. You can then locate the desired standard in the dropdown menu. To narrow down the dropdown menu suggestions type in either a part of the standard's code or keywords from the standard you're looking for.
You can tag a question with multiple standards!
Tag multiple questions to the same standard
If you need to tag multiple questions to the same standard, you can accomplish this task in-bulk!
Expand the lesson-builder navigation bar, on the left side of you formative
Click the 'Select items' option at the bottom of the navigation bar (next to 'add item')
Check-mark the specific questions you'd like to tag to the same standard
Select the 'Tag standards' icon from the menu at the top of the navigation bar
Proceed to search for the desired standard, select it and confirm your selection by clicking 'Add standards'
The selected questions will now be tagged!
Add new standards to your account
If you're missing a standard set in your dropdown menu, it is because the set has not yet been associated with your account. Standards sets can be set up via the account's settings page, or directly from the question itself:
Within your formative, in the "tag to standards" field, select "+ Add New Standard Set"
Type the name of the standard you wish you add
Click on the name of that standard
Select "Confirm & Exit" and the standard will be added to your account

Not seeing the standards you are looking for in Formative? You can add your own standards to Formative easily. We pull all standards from www.commonstandardsproject.com and this website allows you to add standards to it directly.
**School & District licensed organizations: If you are a member of a School & District licensed organization, we can also add standards for you! You would need your team lead to contact their success manager to request to have those added.
