My Students

We are a free, public, charter school that serves children who live in a district that is classified as low income, with all children receiving free breakfast and lunch. The background of students in this school is widely varied. We are consistently working to improve educational opportunities and variety of experiences each year! Our smaller environment helps many students to thrive.

I am teaching 4th grade this year and want to include current events for both my classroom and my partner teacher’s 4th grade classroom!

My Project

In order for students to grow into adults who can form their own beliefs about the world’s events, they must first begin following and discussing current events. By providing current event magazines and discussion points, out fourth graders can begin to understand the world around them.

Time magazine provides a current event subscription for kids that would greatly help us to create this opportunity for our students!

By using it monthly, they can begin to discuss differing viewpoints, value systems, goals of each side, and solutions that are viable. This tool would allow us to provide a safe space to discuss real world information!
