My Project

My students live in a small local community in NC and providing them access to our world through Scholastic Magazines can help support the growth and development of globally-minded citizens. Each student will be provided with their own paper magazine monthly, and as a class, we will use this tool as our lens to view global topics. From science, to social studies, to history, to making students aware of social emotional ideas such as growth mindset, Scholastic News provides not only print but digital interactive assignments related to the content that will help them better understand our world.
