Electronic e-Editions contain everything print newspapers have - distinct sections, classified and display advertising, photos and graphics - but with the convenience of navigating through home and school computers. The new weekly feature “NewsBytes for e-Editions” provides fresh content every week for using e-Editions in creative and effective ways. This feature is written live each week off the news and the school calendar. Each week it includes three separate five-activity sets of activities tiered for Elementary, Middle and High School. One activity in each age group each week explores the technology of e-Editions. All activities are written to state and national academic or technology standards, and the 8.5-by-11 format can be easily emailed or downloaded. Pricing by circulation: $25, $45, $65 per week.
Sample Newspaper Activity
Watch the Volcano - It is often said that volcanoes are among the most amazing things on Earth. Now one in the South American country of Ecuador is about to give the world a show. Scientists say the volcano named Tungurahua (toon-GOO-raw-wah) is about to erupt in a big way in the center of the country. The volcano, whose name means “throat of fire” in the language of Ecuador’s native people, has been spouting rock, flames and ashes into the air for more than a week, and thousands of villagers have been moved to safety. As a class, talk about other ways nature can cause concerns or danger for people. Then look for examples of nature making news in your e-Edition. Talk about ways people could remain safe when faced with a natural event that could be dangerous.
