Staying Current

Help me give my students access to current events and centers to help them excel in their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jones's classroom raised $458

My Project

This project was created to help students stay up to date with current events by acquiring Time Magazine for the whole classroom. I also hope to encourage their fluency by having the students read the magazine for science and social studies in the classroom and to share them with their families when they bring them home.

Working in a Title One classroom, it is often difficult to keep students up to date with what is happening in the world.

I decided to add the two different magazine to help students stay relevant. I added the post it notes so the students could mark anything that stands out. I am also hoping to use Teacher Pay Teachers to help create activities and worksheets to go along with their reading. Thank you for considering to giving to this project.
