Have you ever wanted to put organized, relevant current events content in the hands of your students? Sometimes, it can be a little scary to set our students free on the Internet…I might ask my students to “locate information relating to the violence in Ukraine,” and remind them to use reputable sources. Who really knows what kind of information they are accessing?

Check out The Connected Classroom newspaper...I’ll be using this with my students!
You can share the url with your students, or even embed the paper on your website!If you choose to upgrade your account ($9/month per paper), you can include your own content within the paper. Include random facts of the day, jokes of the day, or anything related to your content area!
Can you have students search your paper.li? I couldn't seem to find the function on your page.
Thanks for reading! Our school filter currently blocks paper.li (I'm working on getting this changed!), but my students can access the paper if they are not on the school's wifi. When you tried to access my paper, did you click on the image or The Connected Classroom?
