Georgia Studies Weekly - Democracy
Detailed Description:
Georgia Studies Weekly—Democracy
This third grade publication comes in 24 colorful newspapers that look and feel like real newspapers. These are shipped in four shipments, or quarters, each containing 6 weekly curriculum newspapers.
This classroom newspaper is based on the Georgia's new GPS (Georgia Performance Standards) state standards for third grade social studies.
Each third grade weekly newspaper contains a standards-based social studies lesson; a current event that relates to the lesson being presented, a regions article; biographical spotlights; Georgia wildlife articles; arts and crafts; crossword puzzle; character education; a comic strip of Georgia Kids; and much more.
A teacher supplement is included with each subscription for ten or more copies. The teacher supplement for each weekly newspaper contains discussion questions, answers to crossword puzzles and other activities; a weekly assessment, and more.
This is an ideal tool to help students prepare with non-fiction reading and comprehension for Georgia state testing and is likely the first significant resource available for teaching the new Georgia Performance Standards.
The third grade GPS newspaper is also ideal for homeschool social studies.
