Description
A worksheet containing questions that can accompany any current events news article. Students may select their own article, or teachers can print the article they wish to have the students evaluate. I developed this worksheet for use in my own 8th grade Social Studies class. This exercise helps students identify the main issues of a news article, the moral question of the article (if present), as well as to consider any possible bias in the writing of the article. The worksheet concludes by asking students to share their own opinions on the article discussed. This worksheet would be appropriate for Middle and High School Students.
