POWER Library Lesson Plans Hub Coming Monday!
The POWER Library OER Commons hub is designed to serve educators across the Commonwealth with high-quality, customizable lesson plans, and other resources, that directly correlate Pennsylvania’s elementary and secondary content standards to the resources provided in POWER Library.

Our mission is to draw together creators, collaborators, and curators to build a community supporting Pennsylvania K-12 educators in their efforts to engage students and to promote student achievement for the benefit of all students across the Commonwealth.

Look for more news coming early next week revealing the site URL, opportunities to participate, and more!
