The weekly news-style article will be made available 2 days before each class. You may print the news article if you wish, however this is not required as the article will be displayed on the screen through 'screen-share' in our Outschool classroom.
I am based in the United Kindgom (London Time Zone). My teaching materials are all written in British English. There are very few differences between British English and American English, however there are a few spelling differences. For example: colour (UK), color (USA).
News-style articles are prepared by the teacher from various sources. Sources for information included in the news-style articles may often include the following links (students are NOT required to access these links for class; these links are for the teacher's article preparation only): https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround https://www.timeforkids.com https://www.natgeokids.com https://www.snexplores.org
