This workshop will
introduce the participants to the new Arkansas Learning Standards for School
Libraries. The participants will unpack
the standards, exploring how the standards can be used to revise their current curriculum
and develop sample assessments based on the standards. Resource documents, grade level benchmarks
and implementation strategies will be provided. Participants are asked to bring their laptop
or other device.
Dates: June and July - specific scheduling dates will be available after
trainers have been determined.
For scheduling and questions about the workshop, contact Cassandra Barnett,
cassandra.barnett@arkansas.gov or 501-682-6576.
