Newspapers Are Still Around? They Are in our Classroom!

Help me give my students high-interest reading material, with colorful pictures and relevant articles. The reading comprehension questions are higher-order thinking questions that require text-based evidence.

My Students

My students speak English as a second language. They come to school with very different backgrounds and experiences when compared to native English speaking children. Often my students are the only English speakers at home. Their parents are unable to help them with their school work. Many students are dual-served under ESOL and special education.

The students come to school every day with a smile on their face and a determination to succeed, despite the obstacle of learning a new language.

My Project

Scholastic News is a high interest, relevant newspaper that students love. With colorful pictures, non-fiction text features, and interesting articles, the students are eager to read them every week.

With citing text evidence as a common core standard in all grades, Scholastic News has questions that have children do just that.

By starting in fifth grade, citing text evidence in high school comes easier to my students.

Scholastic News has differentiated leveled passages, allowing students of all reading levels to enjoy the articles. The whole grade level uses Scholastic News, allowing the teachers to have a common assessment. Scholastic News Rocks!
