Do you love reading aloud to your primary students? We do too! It is one of our favorite times of the day. Here’s what our buyers say:

"We had so much fun doing this, the kids loved to story and the newspaper turned out great"

"I loved the activities for the Emperor's Cool Clothes so much that I decided I needed to try this one for Groundhog Day. I like how the newspaper article style lets my students try out a different kind of writing."
