AAIM 2009

At our school, we must post our objectives and the standards that we are covering each day on the classroom wall. Here is an example of how I’ve used our standards to do this.

This is an example of our NWA Coop’s TIAs. The middle school librarians matched each nine weeks reading TIA’s for 5 th and 6 th grades with our library media standards. We will then teach the library media standards that correspond with the literacy TIAs.
