Scholastic News Is Lit

Help me give my students a subscription to Scholastic News and Science Spin!

My Project

My students love to read and learn about the wonderful world around them. What better way to combine these two passions than through a subscription to the Scholastic News and Science Spin magazines?! The students’ faces light up with unadulterated joy when they see the pack of magazines come into our classroom. They love exploring the articles, games, questions, and digital elements. Best of all, they each keep a copy to bring home, share with their grown-ups, and enjoy. Putting literacy in the hands of our future leaders is lit!
