Using Your Daily Newspaper to Teach Remedial Reading.
Wong, Florence; Bowling, Barbara
One of a series prepared by the Hawaii Newspaper Agency, this teaching guide offers suggestions for using the newspaper to teach remedial reading to junior high school students. Program A discusses a reading program built on motivation and contemporary materials to reach students who are completely turned off by standard reading books. Program B describes teaching literature and developmental reading to seventh and eighth grade students of mixed abilities, and also contains a suggestion that the newspaper has high potential for individualized instruction.
