My Project

The Scholastic News readers help my students see what is happening around the world and help bring the social sciences into the classroom in interesting ways. My students look forward to our Scholastic News each week. The new facts they learn each week keep them motivated. They also love playing the review games that are built in to the digital copy.

The phonics-based stations will help close the gap in reading that has unfortunately come along with COVID-19.

These stations will allow them to practice these foundational reading skills through hands on activities.
