``When I first saw Studies Weekly, I thought, 'This is awesome.' It's not a huge textbook, so it's not intimidating at all. My students can read it and highlight it, circle it and write on it. Then they can fold it, put it in their backpack, and take it home with them. It's just the best product ever.``

REGINALD W. Texas Middle School Teacher

``I love Studies Weekly. The articles are engaging and rigorous. My struggling readers can read along with the articles online. I am also able to integrate reading standards into my Social Studies lessons by using suggestions from the Teaching Supplements. Having the newspapers for the entire year helps me to stay on pace in presenting the social studies curriculum.``

KRISTIN W. Hawaii Elementary Teacher

``We have been using Studies Weekly for several years and we love it. It’s very engaging for the students, and also teacher friendly. The lessons are great, and the online extra videos and resources are even better. The kids love earning points to create a house for their mouse.
Great program!!!``

MISTI W. Florida Teacher

“Studies Weekly has the academics, has the content, and that’s great. But they have so much more…. Anytime we do a project, we use its grammar and spelling, and social studies and writing. Once we’re done with that, we also cut it all up. We cut the pictures up and they do their posters
and projects. It’s just fun.”

CATHY MARSTON 2016 California Teacher of the Year

“The weekly publications are a nice change of pace from a regular textbook for both the students and our teachers. We love that students are able to write and annotate directly on the text of the articles to support the teaching of critical reading skills.”

JEN M. California Literacy Integration Teacher

“Studies Weekly instructional design is highly motivating and engaging, which supports our scholars with retention of the information presented.”
