Students crave an understanding of the world around them, especially as they reach intermediate elementary. Scholastic News is a safe, engaging way to give students access to current events while aligning instruction to the standards. With the addition of online resources, Scholastic News is a powerful tool for learning! We will use the Scholastic News subscriptions weekly to practice our ‘reading to learn’ skills, as most topics are previously unknown to students. News stories are a great tool to learn and practice highlighting and annotating skills as well, with comprehension checks included in every issue. My students look forward to Scholastic News every week!
