My Project

This project will provide weekly Scholastic Magazines and Monthly Scholastic Science Spin magazines for my students in the 2025 - 2026 school year. Scholastic magazines follow the Mississippi standards and ties them to the real world for students. It brings what we learn in the classroom to life for the students as we read and learn about it.

Real-world topics and real student engagement using fresh, high-interest texts, videos, and activities will fuel my students' curiosity!

Scholastic gives students engaging stories that add to our curriculum. It also gives us access to more online material for students to learn from. This magazine helps integrate reading into the other core subjects. These magazines are appealing to students, fun, and add interest to subjects in our class.

In addition, these learning magazines would also help my students connect school and home learning. These magazines will go home with students, creating new topics of discussion in the home, and will make classroom lessons more relevant in students’ daily lives.

Thank you for considering a donation to this project. I am excited about sharing these amazing magazines with my students!
