WORKSHOPS

Over the course of the school year, Newspapers In Education (NIE) offers workshops to educators and students related to the curriculum and programs we offer. The workshops not only offer information based on newspaper and curricula material content, but discussion and activities that can be used in the classroom with your students.

Most workshops offer clock hours and some require a registration fee.

Workshops are always in the works, check back frequently to learn about more hands-on workshops dealing with literacy, journalism, science, current events and life skills!
