This web site offers practical ideas for teaching information literacy skills through "I-Search" projects that are co-taught by the instructional technology specialist, library media specialist and classroom teacher. Our curriculum is grounded in the philosophy that 1) information skills are best taught in the context of the core curriculum; and 2) teachers should model the use of both print and electronic sources of information.

• Grade 5: Space, the Final Frontier
