Promoting Adolescent Literacy Through Newspapers A beneficial resource
for all students, the newspaper provides a variety of writing styles
and text patterns that relate to the material encountered in content
classes. News stories and columns about government, scientific
advances, technology, public affairs and international relations can be
connected directly to subjects students are learning in their
classrooms. The newspaper validates the curriculum of the school, and
ads and articles about consumer goods, services and issues provide
information students can use on a daily basis to make decisions. This
guide is designed to help teachers use the newspaper effectively in
their classrooms. Take advantage of numerous lessons accompanied by
reproducible student activity pages.
