News and Features

If you are interested in having your children keep up with news and current events, yet are discouraged with having to sift through the gore to find appropriate topics---I have a few sites that you might be interested in:

http://teacher.scholastic.com/activities/scholasticnews/index.html

http://learning.snagfilms.com

http://learning.blogs.nytimes.com

Although some material is geared for children older than ours at LPCS, there is certainly enough articles and film to satisfy the 1st through 3rd graders.

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day holiday!
