Reluctant readers of all ages and students reading below grade level are sure to enjoy the high-interest, factual articles featured in this book. Twenty-six newsworthy topics ranging from roller coasters to the Spice Girls keep interest soaring, teach current events, and improve reading comprehension. Students get the opportunity to be a reporter as they "dig" for the Five W's (who, what, when, where, why), then complete their "Just the Facts!" template.
In addition, an extended writing activity can be found on each page along with specific comprehension activities that focus on the following skills: reading for details, locating information, vocabulary enrichment, finding facts, discerning fact from opinion, and word analysis.
