Reading nonfiction text like TIME magazine helps students develop their background knowledge. This is also shown to play a major factor in students' success in content area reading. Background knowledge becomes more crucial in the later elementary grades, as students begin to read more content-specific textbooks that often include headings, graphs, charts, and other text elements not often found in the narrative fiction they encountered in the lower grades. Teachers know nonfiction reading helps students develop research skills and the ability to read complex texts.
TIME magazine will be used to reinforce nonfiction text elements, as well as provide a platform for social studies delivery, including current events and global headlines.
