Newspapers aren't only for reading—they're for learning skills, too! A journalism unit provides three lessons each for primary, intermediate, and secondary grades. Lessons include objectives, materials, vocabulary, and procedure, and cover subjects such as math, social studies, and language arts. Depending on the lesson, scholars chart the weather, compare prices, create a number book, write a persuasive letter, or play a newspaper game.
