Two years ago, I reflected on the need for students to access newspapers in the school library and use it to support their learning.
My current school used to provide newspapers to students, but no longer do.
However, I am in the process of seeking the return of at least one daily newspaper.
I am currently surveying staff who have rallied behind the idea. I have asked them to identify which newspaper/s should be available and then asked them if they would use each of the major newspapers in the classroom. I am looking forward to what the survey results are.
It is encouraging to see classroom teachers valuing the relevance of newspapers to student learning!!!
