'We have a few copies in the library and my combined Grade 4/5 receive a copy for homework each week. It forms part of their reading homework and a sometimes set the activities to complete. We discuss the different articles the following week during homework revision. We have a few copies in the library and my combined Grade 4/5 receive a copy for homework each week.

Amazing publication. Used for fortnightly quizzes.

Used during reading time in the last 15 minutes of the day. Very relevant topics. Up to date daily news. Learners really enjoy it.

I print LTN every week for my 12 year old daughter, and she works through it with her tutor. It is very useful, as she looks forward to doing it every week. She learns about the current, and very interesting things, from around the world. And it is great for comprehension.

As Head of Curriculum I forward Learn the news to all the English teacher in the school. They print it and pupils are able to read the news in class. Articles are also used in worksheets as well as test and exam papers. Excellent publication.

We print and distribute the newspaper to our Intermediate Classes.
The teachers either read the articles to the class and discuss the news or give the
articles to individuals and let them read the articles and answer the questions and
do the puzzles.
 
It is a great way to talk about what is happening in the world.  The learners often
brainstorm answers to some of the most challenging questions facing our world
at the moment.  Often we read news in Learn the News that we haven't heard or
read in other places.  It is a fantastic resource!!

The news is forwarded to all our staff members to read weekly.  I find the material enriching, positive, and easy to read.  The focus is on facts, allowing readers to form their own opinions.  Thank you for your effort in providing us with informative and enjoyable reading material each week.
