Is there a forum for NYC physics standards K-12?

In summary, as a new tutor for 11th grade physics in New York City, you are required to keep internal notes on sessions and standards covered. However, you have noticed that the physical science standards do not include velocity or displacement as content areas. You are looking for resources or a forum to help with this issue, and you may need to consult with NY Regents or use a Regents-focused Physics Review book for now. Two potential resources are the NYS standards document and the New York Science Teacher website.

I am a new tutor working with students in 11th grade physics in New York City. I am required to keep notes internally on the sessions and the standards that I cover in them; after noticing that the physical science standards don’t include mentions of velocity or displacement as a content area, I am wondering where I can turn for help.

The standards include content for momentum and forces, energy, waves, and mass, but not early semester material on reading velocity-time graphs and finding displacement as the area under that curve.

Is there a forum or resource for questions about the NYC physics standards?
