21st Century Skills Library

Life in the 21st century: there is precious little time today to adequately prepare kids for the demands they will face tomorrow. Every moment--and every resource--in your library needs to count. Cherry Lake Publishing is pleased to offer a new series of books, 21st Century Skills Library, that help prepare kids for their future in this new century. Aligned to standards and the Partnership for 21st skills framework, these books are designed to help your library remain relevant in this era of accountability. Twenty-first century learning is about the process of integrating and using knowledge, not just the acquisition of facts and procedures. Using innovative callouts, the 21st Century Skills Library challenges students to think beyond facts and focus on learning.
