 * 2) 2. We will identify and integrate into the school community the skills, knowledge and understandings essential for students to succeed in a changing world.
 * 3) 3. We will review, deepen, and refine, as needed, the practices, tools and programs essential for each student to meet or exceed the ASD standards.
 * 4) 4. We will develop a stronger relationship with the Qatari community and expand our involvement with Qatar’s educational aspirations while being true to our mission, vision and identity.

 * 1 and 2 || The UE teacher-librarian with work with members of the UE teams 2 times each month to develop the integrated library program to support the standards based reporting system. || Successful completion will be measured through a monthly tally by grade level representing periods of class library use. || Monthly record in library schedule book. ||

The standards, particularly for Social Studies have changed this year, meaning that units are being developed to support the new benchmarks. As the UE teacher-librarian I need to be involved in the development of the programs, both to support the teachers with applicable lessons and to make sure sufficient materials, within the realm of the school library, have been ordered. Integration with the classroom programs will be available in any subject area, though most noticeably it will occur in Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies.
 * Brief Description of your plan:**


 * Please explain how doing an alternative PG and E plan will benefit the learning of your students:**

The total integration of library with the classroom program allows the student to be provided instruction that integrates information literacy skills with the core curriculum. We want students to leave ASD knowing that effective research strategies can be applied to many different situations.
