The premise
AI can map vertical articulation across grades, surfacing what grade N teaches that grade N+1 expects, and where the gaps create predictable struggle.
What AI does well here
- Cross-reference standards documents and pacing guides across consecutive grades.
- Surface skills assumed by grade N+1 that are not explicitly taught in grade N.
What AI cannot do
- Replace the cross-grade conversation where teachers admit which standards they actually skip.
- Decide which gaps are this team's responsibility vs. needing district-level intervention.
