The lesson plan format helps teachers to lead students into your newspaper as the textbook of the NIE program. Suggestions for using your newspaper are provided. Materials are customized with your logo. Our experience shows that one subscription will normally serve an entire school building and that an average of three teachers per school use the program regularly.
Additional activities are also available at the website.
The Quiz provides an excellent opportunity to direct students to your newspaper 52 weeks a year. Parents also appreciate the opportunity to use the Quiz for news discussions at home. At the end of each school year, NewsCurrents compiles a comprehensive evaluation of your NIE program through written and telephone contacts with your teachers. The report supplies a statistical analysis of the penetration and cost-effectiveness of your program as well as comments from teachers who use NewsCurrents and your newspaper in their classrooms. Feature all the resources of the NewsCurrents site as though they are actually on your site with our framed layout.
