Tutor Tips - Newspapers and Comprehension


     Newspapers - We take it for granted sometimes; the newspaper comes out everyday, we read it, catch up on what happened all over the world the day before, and move on with today. We look at the tables and graphs of some interesting study conducted, look at the weather map for the week ahead, rummage through the classifieds here and there, and comics - who can put the paper down without reading them!
     All aspects of the newspaper are very good tools to use with students from kindergarten grade to the adult struggling with reading comprehension. Although most students don't even realize it, there is something in the newspaper for everyone!
     Stop in the main office - we have MANY newspaper activities for you to try with your students. Also, we receive a weekly "News for You" at the office, which is real news just written at a lower level and with bigger print. There are also activities to do after you and your student has finished the paper. Come in and check it out!
