Agent Skills for K-12 Teachers

What it does

• Four production skills, not demos — they are the same skills bundled with Claude for Teachers
• Standards grounding via the Learning Commons Knowledge Graph connector, covering academic standards across all 50 US states and the progressions beneath them
• Differentiation keeps core content identical across tiers; check-for-understanding routes each student response to a documented next step
• evals/ ships the evaluation framework itself, adaptable to your own skill testing

When to use it

For teachers (or the developers of teacher tooling) who want ground-truth examples of task-shaped skills: concrete instructions, external knowledge grounding, and measurable outputs. Also a rare public look at how Anthropic evals non-coding skills.

Getting started

In Claude for Teachers: already installed. Elsewhere, load the plugin manually in Claude Code:

git clone https://github.com/anthropics/k12-teacher-skills
claude plugin marketplace add ./k12-teacher-skills
claude plugin install k12-education@k12-teacher-skills

Things to know

The skills are written assuming the Learning Commons Knowledge Graph connector (included with Claude for Teachers); the README tells you to adapt them if your environment lacks it. US-standards-centric — other curricula need re-grounding.
