If you work with younger students and you have access to digital devices that access the Internet head over to National Geographic Young Explorer. You will find issues from October 2009 through April 2014. The great thing about these magazines is that the student may have the text read to them, and each word is highlighted as it is read. The site also states that it continues to add new magazines during the school year, so more should be coming soon.
Along with the Listen and Read feature, there are two Teacher Guides for each issue that you may print out. One guide is for Kindergarten and the other is for first grade. The guides include lesson plans, discussion questions, ready-to-copy worksheets and more." There is also a projectable issue available that you may use to present the information to your class as a whole.
This is a great resource to introduce students to science and to informational text (as required by Common Core). For teachers of young students who may not have a science background this website will provide you with a wealth of resources. Have fun sharing this with students and their families.
