WHAT TEACHERS SAY ABOUT NIE: “The stack of Hartford Courants on the table is an automatic "hook" when the students arrive in the morning. They are becoming more aware of what is going on in their world, and they know that the newspaper will get them up-to-date on their individual interests.” Bill Dwan, Dwan.pdf Thomaston Center School, Thomaston “What better way for students to make authentic
connections to their world than to use up-to-date news found in The
Hartford Courant.” “Newspapers provide realistic contexts for
student to practice applying academic skills to problem solving. They
also serve a living textbook that can be marked, cut, glued, colored
and recycled.” |
