Description

This book provides targeted and invaluable help for the busy elementary school librarian and the science teacher as they work together to design and co-teach library-based lessons guided by the Next Generation Science Standards, English Literacy Common Core Standards, and the new AASL Standards. All standards are cited in easy-to-use reproducible lessons. Energy-packed and interactive lessons are coordinated to common elementary science curricula at the grade level indicated and are also adaptable and usable as template lessons as needed. Necessary handouts and other tools, with current lists of recommended resources, are provided. Elementary school librarians and classroom teachers as well as curriculum coordinators, elementary reading, social studies, and science instructors will find value in this collection of lessons. The highly rated materials recommended in the resource lists are valuable for aiding librarians in collection development to support new and current standards.
