Finding curriculum resources
Looking for juvenile literature related to a particular subject area and reading level? This information and more is readily available through Children's Literature Comprehensive Database. Use the Worldcat link at the bottom of the results page to see if the library owns the title, or if it is available through a local library. Remember to use Interlibrary Loan to access titles that are not easily available to you.
A great resource for researching curriculum requirements and lesson planning is the Kraus Curriculum Development Library--KCDL Online.
