Scholastic News Helping Teach Social Studies & Science

My Project

I love seeing my students engaged in real-world experiences. Scholastic News will help bring both social studies and science alive in our classroom. Students can connect to the outside world with weekly magazines and digital stories. They will be excited to learn new information each week that connects to our second-grade curriculum. My goals for this project are to learn new concepts with Scholastic News and connect the objectives to field trips outside of school. Students will have these new and engaging hands-on experiences for the rest of their lives!
