Discussing current events in our communities offers rich learning experiences. In my grade 5/6 classroom, students are each assigned a week to present on a current event topic of their choice. In this package you will find: 1.) Instructions on how to choose a news article from a reputable source in student friendly language. 2.) A worksheet that asks students to analyze the article using the 5W format + providing their opinion 3.) Assessment criteria for teachers 4.) Student Self- Assessment
