Extra, Extra, Read All About It! Current Events in the Classroom
The importance to help my students to become informed young citizens and lifelong news readers can be emphasized by using current events. As students read and discuss current events, they analyze point of view, evaluate text claims, and determine the important ideas within a text.
Okay, so clearly we need to teach current events in class. The next challenge is finding news articles. I have included a couple grade level appropriate sites that the students can use. However, your local newspaper or website of your choice is fine as well.
