Main Activity Discussion Questions Did every standard fall within a Critical Area? If your group has a standard that is not firmly in a Critical Area, how does it connect to the other standards? Are there standards that fall within more than one Critical Area? If your group has a standard that that connects to more than one Critical Area, does it have a stronger connection to one area over another? Do all standards within a cluster fall within the same Critical Area? If your group has a cluster with standards in two different Critical Areas, what does that tell you about the cluster?
