How It’s Made

Journalism, at age nine.

Every issue is a real-world project that puts the ELA curriculum into practice.

01 · Report

Students choose their stories, interview classmates and teachers, and gather the facts.

02 · Write & edit

Drafts are written, revised, and polished, applying the same writing method they learn in class.

03 · Publish

Illustrated, assembled, and shared with every family. A byline they can point to with pride.
