My scholars love to learn! They are especially interested in current events. Sadly, our curriculum doesn't include today's news. I currently use a Site called NEWSELA, but I have to print the articles, or students have to read them online. My students, don't enjoy reading so much on the computer. They love to hold and mark in the text. TIME's kids will give them the opportunity to learn, read and talk about current events. They will also be able to discuss current topics and have a friendly debate. I hope you feel the need of giving this holiday season. Remember, our students are our future and they deserve the best. Thank you for checking out my project. Have an awesome holiday season!
