Curriculum Overview

In each grade, the document lists the subject areas and specific assignments or units that incorporate information literacy skills like database searching, evaluating sources, note-taking, and citing sources in appropriate styles. For example, in grade 9 students participate in a mythology unit requiring database searches, note-making, and citing sources in MLA style. In grade 12, an English assignment involves a summative unit on ethics that integrates research processes and technology. Across subjects and grades, the library program aims to develop students' research abilities and teach skills for academic integrity.
