School librarians have the resources, training and knowledge to help us make those meaningful connections between the Common Core Standards and our students’ interests and lives.
Here’s why you need your school librarian now more than ever:
Your librarian can help you generate collaborative projects for your students that incorporate both information literacy and the Common Core Standards.
Your school librarian can help you develop lessons for your students that focus on both content objectives and technology objectives.
When students find a book that gets them excited, they are more likely to pick up another book.
Your school librarian can help match your students’ interests with the right books, and he or she can help you incorporate more books into your curriculum to help support student learning.
