Fly Around the World by Reading Cool Time for Kids!
My students need 37 subscriptions to Time for Kids and Weekly Reader Senior Edition Magazines. I'd also like them to have file folders to keep these subscriptions organized.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
I am a 6th, 7th and 8th grade language arts teacher/special educator in an urban, public school in Baltimore. I have taught for over ten years and am always looking for new reading material that interests my students. I teach both high performing students and students with special needs.
My students are very easily bored and seem to have very little background knowledge in science, history and current events. "Time for Kids" and the "Current Events Weekly Reader-Senior Edition" introduces them to a whole new world. Most of the reading material provided by the school system doesn't include the latest, up-to-date world news. Therefor, my students are unaware of what is happening in the world.
I am always trying to feed my students the latest, most exciting information available. These high interest magazines are wonderfully illustrated and have sparked my students' interests in reading, science, and world politics. They also provide additional related lessons and activities. In addition, I teach the importance of taking care of these educational supplies by having the students keep them organized by using file folders.
Please help me with this necessary project. Our children are our future. They need to be aware of their world outside of Baltimore. By providing these magazines you can allow them to "fly around the world" and open their minds to new ideas! By reading the magazines and completing activities they will be much more aware of events happening all over the world!
