Title | World News for Kids |
Body | From http://www.englishraven.com/wnk_teachers.html World News for Kids! is a simple but dynamic teaching and learning resource for learners in the 9-15 range. The basic idea is a range of carefully leveled current news articles presented online, geared toward the interests and subject-based needs of students in these age brackets. World News for Kids! presents 4 news articles each week, one for each of four levels. There is also a "News Extra" article accompanying each news story, which expands, adds to, or in some way enhances the topical content of the original article. Generally speaking, the levels are designed to match up with grade levels in the following way: Lvl 1 (Dove) - Elementary/Primary grades 3-4 Lvl 2 (Owl) - Elementary/Primary grades 4-5 Lvl 3 (Eagle) - Grades 5-7 Lvl 4 (Albatross) - Grades 6-8 The language used in the articles is especially appropriate for English as a Second or Foreign Language learners, and also first language learners who may be struggling with essential literacy skills and/or general academic motivation.
