Reading and writing is a fundamental skill for all children. Most students struggle to put their ideas down on paper and my students are no different. I have found a valuable and instrumental tool called Storyworks that has helped students improve their reading and writing skills.
Storyworks gives students something to read that is more interesting and relevant than "old boring textbooks" as some of them like to say. I would love to provide my students with the opportunity to engage with the articles and multimedia videos provided with a Storyworks magazine subscription and eventually improve their reading and writing. A subscription to Storyworks would be priceless for my students.
