That means that many of my students are speaking English as a second language.\r\nBy using the magazines that you provided, I am not only teaching my students about stem, current events, but I am also enriching their literacy skills. This is developing reading skills, reading comprehension, and developing a current events awareness of what is going on in the scientific community.
