Live Oak Media and the Common Core State Standards
Live Oak Media is pleased to offer Common Core Educator Guides for our titles. They are specially designed to help teachers and librarians implement the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Initiative. Our Guides focus on higher-level thinking skills and include across-the-curriculum activities that can be used in the classroom to increase understanding and appreciation of the texts. We have correlated both the books themselves and the Guide activities with CCSS Language Arts and Mathematics standards. You can access our CCSS chart here. The chart lists the Live Oak titles that have been correlated to the CCSS and the standards to which they are correlated. We're adding new titles every month!
