What's Happening in the News

Each quarter, your child will be a completing a What's Happening in the News assignment.  Students will select a current events news article and then read to discover the "Who, What, Where, When, and Why" of the news.  They will then use key words to provide a brief summary of the article.  After completing the assignment your child will present the information to the class on Thursday during the "share" portion of our classroom meeting.  There will be 4-5 presenters each week.  When presenting, students will need to summarize the news, and also share what the possible effects from the event may be. Students will not only practice their researching and public speaking skills, but will also discover that importance of staying up-to-date on current events.  For more information and resources, click on the following link: What's Happening in the News
