My Project

Weekly magazines for students will be used both at school and at home. They will allow students to stay informed about worldwide current events, both uplifting events and serious issues. Students will be able to access this information in a developmentally appropriate way, at reading levels they can successfully navigate.

Students will also use monthly literature magazines at school and at home.

They will provide every student with high-interest reading from multiple genres in a manageable and exciting format.

Both will provide a link for reading between the school and home, giving students quality material.
