What will be done with my students

The students in my class would be able to use the Scholastic News articles as a way to be aware of current events in our world today. Exposing the students to real world current events today can help to build character, empathy, cultural awareness and kindness that they can implement into their daily lives both in the classroom and in their communities. 

 

Benefits to my students

My students would benefit from this request because it would allow them to have a fresh perspective to current events in our world. Reading about current events would allow my class of 20 students to become more aware of real- world events and current issues today. Building character, understanding for other people and their perspectives and creating “kind kids,” will benefit our society not just for today, but for years to come.
