Information Literacy
At the 9th grade level I worked with the English Department to integrate information literacy skills into the curriculum. Below are the skills we focused on for grade 9. Additionally, you can see the progression of skills that we are working on for each grade level.

Internet Safety
I visited the Life Prep classes each quarter to talk about social media, cell phones, and online reputations. Every time I learn something new from the students!
Now that a majority of our students have smartphones, there are many issues to discuss. See the library page for Internet Safety resources that we use for our lesson.

Design Thinking
We were able to incorporate elements of design thinking into various projects this year. Once again we used this process in the Public Speaking classes for a team project. Additionally, we used various components of design thinking in research planning and group brainstorming for grade 10 English and AP Language.
