My Project

Today's students are curious, but they like to know that what they are reading is relevant to their lives. The magazine Science World is excellent at addressing issues that students want to read. They also address current events that students will hear in the news (like the International Space Station or Space X as well as cloning or oceanography).

Students are eager to learn about the real world, and I want to support them in doing that well!

Science World provides engaging articles and online links that support further exploration.

In the past, some of my students beg to take home a copy to share with siblings or parents. To me, that means they are invested in their learning!
