Getting my 5th graders excited about reading can be a challenge. With the distraction of social media, engaging young readers requires relevant, current events and real world connections. Scholastic magazine does just that!
Most of my students do not have any other educational opportunities outside of school, so they come to school very eager for information and learning about the world around them!
My students appreciate anything that I do for them. They are always eager and ready to dive into whatever we're learning that is new and different!
My students do not get enough interaction and exposure to non-fiction text and articles that they enjoy reading. I am asking for subscriptions to Scholastic News magazine because the relatable and engaging articles will help my students build vocabulary and gain knowledge in areas that are relevant to their life.
These Scholastic News magazines will help to build the reading skills and content area knowledge my fifth graders need most, with on-level non-fiction, ready-to-go lesson plans and online resources.
The engaging possibilities and lesson ideas are endless with these articles in their hands.
By supporting our project, you will help put current and relatable news in the hands of my students on a weekly basis.
