I have offered to work on correlation of the package to Virginia's SOL's, but, as I am a high school teacher, I am sure I could benefit from the assistance of one or more elementary school teachers.
If you are interested in helping with this project, please contact me via e-mail. I haven't received the curriculum package yet, so I am not sure how many lessons there are. I will be happy to pass along information as I get it!
Cheers!
