This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
Have you ever been in a doctor's office looking for something to read only to find Fly Fishing Quarterly or Knitting for Dummies? Imagine the 6th grader in my classroom who has not yet learned to love reading. During free reading time, all of us - students and adults - need to have something enjoyable to read.
My 6th graders are generationally impoverished. Their parents and grandparents grew up in the housing projects too. They need literature that's engaging, educational, and that helps them see the possibilities in life. Several publishers provide those magazines.
For a small amount, we would like to order subscriptions to Time for Kids for my sixth grade students. TFK, in addition to be interesting for the students, helps make connections to social studies and world cultures. The magazines will help open their minds to reading and to the world outside of the housing projects.
TIME For Kids Magazine- World Report Edition w/ Go Places with TFK! (grades 4-7). Pricing is valid for orders placed between August 1 and October 16, 2004. TIME For Kids reserves the right to prorate issue quantity, free gifts, and pricing for orders received after October 16, 2004. Only valid for orders in quantities of 10 or more. Orders for less than 10 subscriptions will NOT be fulfilled.
