Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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.

My Project

Scholastic News Magazine provides real images of today's world inside their magazines and also provides access for students to view videos that make the articles come alive. Science Spin provides a full year of engaging, on-level lessons featuring simple, fun nonfiction; digital-learning resources; and step-by-step lesson plans that correlate to NGSS.

Scholastic Magazines will provide an element of adventure and real-world connections to student learning.

By having Scholastic News magazines in our class, our students will be able to learn about what is happening in the world with kid-friendly articles and stories. With these resources in our class, we can deliver engaging reading materials to young learners in both small and large groups. Also, these magazines are rich in vocabulary and provide great non-fiction content.
