  4. Elementary Libraries • Curriculum : state organized 36 standards for libraries before common core. • In Conway, we created our own pacing guide with activities to go along with our guide. • With Common Core, we only work on 2 or 3 standards pre 9 weeks. We tried to pick the standards that teacher would not teach in the classroom. • We (elementary) are part of the report card so we give a grade on the 2 or 3 standard. We will teach other topics from our frameworks but will not give a grade.

  5. Frameworks/standards • Pacing guide • First 9 weeks SLES • Kindergarten • First Grade • Second Grade • Third Grade • Fourth Grade
