<div dir="ltr">I create my own curriculum for my k-5 fixed schedule kids. I try to supplement science and social studies since we have less time for those (especially this year on a condensed schedule). This year I started something I'm calling Postcard Field Trip that focuses on "travelling" with our reading so that we study people, culture, history, government, landmarks, ecosystems, agriculture, etc of different places that we can travel through our books. The kids have really enjoyed it. I'm going to work on a website this summer to share what books I've been using and the cool links I've found to share with students. </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Apr 23, 2021 at 9:38 AM Michelle Harris via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">My elementary school is on a fixed schedule and my classes provide plan time for teachers. I do NOT have a fixed curriculum, I have always written my own. I look at the library standards, technology standards, and ELA/science/social studies standards to undergird my lessons. I keep in contact with individual grades so that, for example, when they are studying poetry, I can be doing a tech project with poetry, teaching students where to find poetry in the library, or spotlighting featured poets. I do keep track of my own scope & sequence and tweak it and change it up all the time as needed. I am not required to give grades. <div><br></div><div>Michelle Harris</div><div>Heyworth CUSD #4</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Apr 23, 2021 at 9:04 AM Barb Miller via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hello,<div><br></div><div>For those of you who are on a fixed schedule and the library is providing plan time for a classroom teacher, does your district have a library curriculum?
