I use category tags to sort things by grade.  The categories can then function as a search term to bring up all of the things for one grade level: [http://www.wikieducator.org/Category:Developed_for_first_grade first grade for example]

Now, for the wiki magicians: if you can come up with a way to combine categories (for example 'biology' and 'first grade'), then category pages could function as Boolean searches for subject AND grade level AND resource type (lesson plan, image, etc).

A consistent list of category tags would be needed for this all to work.  In the absence of the Boolean idea, a table of categories could be established:
{|border="2"
| Subject|| Grade 1|| Grade 2|| Grade 3
|-
| Biology|| Biol1|| Biol 2|| Biol3
|-
| Poetry|| Poet1|| Poet2|| Poet3  
|}

Generators of content could liberally sprinkle in the categories that best described their content.[[User:Dmccabe|Dmccabe]] 04:08, 19 November 2007 (CET)
