newspaper
By Michelle

I taught 4th grade LA last year. I used the newspaper in conjuction with our reading text. If we were reading about heroes, then I asked them to find someone in the newspaper they consider a hero. They picked some great articles! During Black History month we used the information leaflet that ran on a Sunday to research about a famous black american. I have also used the paper to award bonus points for spelling. They get a point for each spelling word they can highlight in the paper. Hope this helps!
