My Project

Scholastic News is an amazing resource that connects students to current events, introduces them to engaging stories, and fosters a love of reading. The magazines are tailored for young readers and cover a wide range of topics, from science and history to exciting features about animals, sports, and technology. With these magazines, we will be able to improve our reading skills through engaging, age-appropriate articles, expand our knowledge of the world by exploring real-world events and stories, develop critical thinking by discussing and analyzing what we read, and enhance our vocabulary with words and topics that are relevant to our lives.

Each issue of Scholastic News brings something new to learn and talk about, making our classroom discussions lively and interesting.

It will also help us build skills that will prepare us for future success as readers and thinkers. Scholastic News, WILL help us not only grow as readers but also become more informed, empathetic, and curious learners.
