 * ** COLLABORATIVE STATEMENT ** ||
 * As a school library media specialist, I, Frida Reed, will endeavor to collaborate with my fellow teachers whenever possible and appropriate to benefit the instruction of all students. I will plan, teach, assess, and evaluate collaboratively and cooperatively in any area of instruction, specifically working to integrate literacy skills, information skills, technology skills, and content areas. Because I am aware of how great the benefits are for students when more than one educator is involved in their lesson, this will be a constant focus of my work as a teacher-librarian. ||
