Blog – Common Core Aligned Playlists Featuring LearnZillion. LessonPaths and LearnZillion have teamed up to create a comprehensive collection of Common Core aligned learning playlists perfect for providing students with easy access to guided learning experiences. Currently there are 327 Common Core aligned playlists ready and available for free on the LessonPaths site.
LessonPaths playlists are displayed in a step-by-step format that allow users to interact with live web content right on the page, keeping students on track without getting lost in a stream of open tabs and new pages. As students progress through a playlist at their own pace, LessonPaths keeps track of completed steps. Flexibility to move within a playlist is provided by a preview that’s always accessible on the side of the screen, allowing users to jump to different steps as needed for reteaching and challenge. The newly added LearnZillion Common Core aligned lessons focus on the use of narrated video for instruction. Here are a few playlists to test drive. Coming Soon!

A Librarian's Tricks for Finding Those 'Complex Texts' Cited in the Common Core. A librarian’s ability to find quality texts, like all good magic acts, blends art and science to amaze the audience. We can accomplish things with Google and databases that exceed the ability of the average user. But should we keep this magic to ourselves? Performers Penn and Teller have built their careers on the novel idea of divulging the secrets behind their magic tricks. If there are no secrets, how can there still be magic? The real power here is the ability of the practitioner to connect with his audience. Even when the science is revealed, the art remains the critical part of the show. The same holds true for librarians—giving away the secrets of our information-finding powers will only enhance our value within the school community.
That’s exactly what most schools need right now. Local teachers recently attended a CC workshop to learn about the elements that comprise a complex text and “close reading.” 1. 2. 3. Common core for elementary library. Curriculum and Instruction / Common Core Link Library. Common Core Toolkit.
