The organization of the K-8 and high school content standards are different. K-8 content standards ARE organized by grade. An example that explains the format for K-8 is:
CCSS.Math.Content.8.F.A.1 8 is for grade 8. There are 9 grades: K-8 F is the Domain (in this case Functions). There are 11 Domains. A is the Cluster. Clusters are labeled A, B, C, etc. 1 is the Standard. Standards are labeled 1, 2, 3, etc. There can be parts of Standards like 1a, 1b, etc.
Content Standards http://www.corestandards.org/Math/
High School standards ARE NOT organized by grade. An example that explains the format for high school is: CCSS.Math.Content.HSF-IF.A.1 HS is for High School. All High School standards have an HS here. F is the Category (in this case Functions). There are 6 HS Categories. IF is the Domain. (in this case Interpreting Functions). A is the Cluster. Clusters are labeled A, B, C, etc. 1 is the Standard. Standards are labeled 1, 2, 3, etc.
Standards that end with a (+) are beyond the college and career readiness level but are necessary for advanced mathematics courses, such as calculus, discrete mathematics, and advanced statistics. Standards with a (+) may still be found in courses expected for all students.

The six high school categories are:
http://www.corestandards.org/assets/CCSSI_Mathematics_Appendix_A.pdf gives four “pathways” to cover the High School Math CCSS; two are “traditional” and two are “integrated”; two are not “accelerated” and two are “accelerated”.
The traditional pathway begins on page 8. The four years are Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and “Fourth Courses”.
The integrated pathway begins on page 51. The four years are Mathematics I, Mathematics II, Mathematics III, and “Fourth Courses”.
The accelerated traditional pathway begins on page 82. This pathway is described on page 3.
The accelerated integrated pathway begins on page 117. This pathway is described on page 3.

Myth: The Common Core State Standards are a federally mandated curriculum.Myth: The Common Core State Standards mandate more student testing.Myth: The Common Core State Standards de-emphasize literature.Myth: The Common Core State Standards are “one-size-fits-all.”Myth: The Common Core State Standards are not researched-based.

FluidMath can be used in a variety of way:
1.FluidMath can be used as a smart math paper or whiteboardExample: Create a graph of y = mx + b
2.FluidMath can be used to create and share demonstration appletsExample: Transformed quadratic functions
3.FluidMath can be used to create learning environment appletsExmple: Vertical lines
4.FluidMath can be used to create dynamic class notesExample: Quadratic equations – five types of solutions
