They spark interest in our world news, inspire curiosity, and even contribute to debates and incredible discussions that we have in our class.\r\n\r\nAnother aspect of this contribution that you may not see is that this helps me to use my classroom spending on other valuable resources for my class. Oftentimes I would pay for these magazines out of my own pocket, or miss out on other resources so that I could order these. It is so incredibly touching that you value students' learning so much that you would contribute to kids you will never even meet!
