The project provides teachers with ideas to create literacy centers for use in their own classrooms using student-friendly newspapers from various curricular areas. We will provide plans that can be used to adapt the materials each week. The informational text provided by each newspaper will allow for the study of current events in a variety of areas. In science, the students will participate in hands-on experiences to reinforce the weekly topic. In social studies, the students will learn about current events in the news, as well as both Florida and United States history. In math, the students will use manipulatives to explore multi-step and higher-level problems.
