Welcome to www.scholastic.com/sn2, the Web site for Scholastic News, Edition 2. This Web site extends and enriches the Scholastic News print magazines that your child reads in class every month.
The Internet can be a scary place for parents who want their children to broaden their knowledge and learn computer skills, but don't want them to come across inappropriate material. Our Web site is a safe site where your kids can have fun and learn. You can go on this site with your child or have your child work on it alone, knowing that all the content is not only kid-appropriate but also educational. Here are our three main features:
•Print a Fun Page
How It Works:
Just click on Print a Fun Page and print out the page. Then your child can do the activity.
Purpose:
Print a Fun Page is a fun way to build your child's skills in topics related to his or her Scholastic News issues. This feature also extends the topics covered in Scholastic News for those children who want to learn more.
• I Can Read!
How It Works:
Your students will listen to the sentence on the screen. Then they will be asked to click on a word in the sentence. If they click the right word, they will be given another sentence. If they click on the wrong word, they can try again.
Purpose:
I Can Read is a game that gives children practice with high-frequency sight words. These are commonly-used words that good readers learn to recognize automatically without sounding them out.
