Product Description
Learning to read newspapers and magazines is important to becoming an informed citizen. They provide us with a portable source of entertainment, as well. This book will help you present newspapers and magazines to students in fun, productive ways. Students learn to think like a reporter and look for the five "Ws" in a story (who, what, where, when, and why). They'll discuss the front page, sports, human interest, and the advice column. The sample magazine article, The Life of Jacques Cousteau, makes for fascinating and educational reading in and of itself.
The book is divided into three sections, each with a table of contents, teaching ideas, and numerous involving activities. Sections include:
* Newspapers in the Classroom -- parts of the newspaper, creative newspaper activities, create a class newspaper
* Using Magazines in the Classroom -- recommended magazines, parts of a magazine, reading a magazine article
* Bonus Activities -- Seven extension activities that can relate to either newspapers or magazines -- word search, biographical profile, public opinion poll, news bulletins, make a newsworthy puzzle, the great debate, a real role model, word search
Special Features: checklist of skills, newspaper scavenger hunt, and newspaper events time line. Catchy line art accents the presentation throughout. All 64 pages perforated for easy removal.

The challenge of evaluating information is an invaluable skill for students to develop. This educator's resource/reproducible workbook for grades 4-6+ is an excellent tool to teach these skills. It's adaptable for Internet searching and evaluation and for individual and group activities, too.
