At approximately 12:10pm, we will take a little break from Microsoft Word and talk about informative, age-appropriate websites that can keep you informed about current events by using the Internet.
- http://www.timeforkids.com/TFK/news ---Time for Kids
- http://www.sciencenewsforkids.org/ ---Science News for Kids
- http://teacher.scholastic.com/scholasticnews/ ---Scholastic News for Kids
- http://cnnstudentnews.cnn.com/fyi/index.html ---CNN Student News for Kids
First head your paper with the MLA style heading. After you read the article, put the title of the article centered on your word document after the heading. Next, write a one paragraph summary of the article. DO NOT COPY ANYTHING WORD FOR WORD FROM THE ARTICLE. That would be plagarism!
Finally, in a second paragraph rate the website based upon its usefulness to you as a middle school student. Would you recommend friends to go here? Did you find the information useful and age-appropriate? On a scale of 1-5 (1 being outstanding, 5 being not useful at all) rate this website.
Make sure you write in complete sentences and organize your thoughts.
