As they read, students learn to determine the text structure—whether the article is organized as cause and effect, problem and solution, sequence, or compare and contrast—which helps them better understand the author's purpose and how information is presented. They also focus on finding the main idea and supporting details to summarize key points accurately. Additionally, students analyze text features such as headlines, captions, photos, and graphs to gather extra information and deepen their understanding. Through regular practice with Scholastic News, fifth graders are becoming more confident and strategic readers of informational texts.\r\n\r\nUsing Scholastic News has also been a new and interesting way to read; it offers current, engaging topics and a change from our regular curriculum, which can sometimes feel monotonous. Through this fresh approach, fifth graders are becoming more confident and motivated readers of informational texts.","fullyFundedDate":1755699634453,"projectUrl":"project/making-scholars-scholarly-with-scholasti/9385783/","projectTitle":"Making Scholars Scholarly with Scholastic STEM!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. D","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10046227"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_41903","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":443,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":32,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":63,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":44.6,"schoolId":41903,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Kendrick Lakes Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Kendrick Lakes Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/jefferson-county-school-district-r-1/kendrick-lakes-elementary-school/41903"}
