What I'm noticing at both the middle schools is that teachers need to
begin teaching research skills and they're starting at square one,
especially when trying to teach note taking skills such reading a text
for the main idea, the difference between copying and paraphrasing, etc.
Spelling is also a big complaint from the teachers.

Subject: Tar: Middle School LMS - What should students know
Hello,
I was asked by an elementary librarian what should she be teaching to
prepare her students for middle school? I could only think of a few
things. Is there anything that stands out to any of you?
Thanks again for your help.
