I am so excited about the idea of funding this project for my students! Our school works very hard at teaching students to read with a purpose and to take a closer look at text features. We teach them how to ask questions while reading and make connections. These are valuable skills that they will use throughout their schooling and possibly their lives! You can feel the buzz of excitement in the air when the class sees you break out the Scholastic magazines! What better way to teach students to become better readers than by exploring relevant topics in Scholastic News and Science Spin?! Scholastic makes teaching nonfiction topics to students ridiculously fun! The magazines are packed full of colorful photographs, interesting captions and detailed text features. All of these components come together in one beautifully written, high-interest magazine that students love. Thank you for helping me give students this wonderful opportunity!
