As most of you know we are running a 10 chapter story in the paper that started last Friday and will continue to run every Friday for the next 9 weeks. I have also attached the Teachers Guide that goes along with it.
If you have any questions just let me know.

Thanks,

Worried About MSP and HSPE?

If you take the Sunday paper as part of your NIE subscription, we will email MSP and HSPE prep questions to you each Monday afternoon. Questions relate to content of the Sunday newspaper and are intended to develop one or more of the following skills: reading and comprehension, essay writing, critical thinking, and evaluation and analysis. Questions are geared for grades 5-12.

This is a FREE service for NIE teachers. We need a valid email address. Sometimes schools block incoming mail, so be sure to ask your school to unblock NIE so we can get through your email.
