God’s World News for Kids

God's World News Mailbox

God’s World News for Kids is a weekly, current events newspaper written from a Christian perspective. There are four editions available on four different grade levels: “Early Edition” for PreK-1, “Taking Off” for grades 2-3, “News Current” for grades 4-5, and “Top Story” for grades 6-9.

Age-appropriate articles and activities are primarily on current events, although science, geography, history, language arts, and even math receive attention. Topics covered in God’s World News might even be used as ideas for further research or projects.

With each God’s World News subscription you will also receive eight posters (one of which is a map) and the weekly Teacher’s Helper. The Teacher’s Helper highlights key topics and suggests methods of integrating the articles and suggested activities into your curriculum. These can also be downloaded from the website for free. The Teacher's Helper often has suggestions that comprise limited unit studies. This is a great tool for experimenting with unit studies without a major commitment.

Discounts apply when two or more copies of the same edition are sent to a single address, but the discounts are huge if you can get seven or more subscriptions of the same edition sent to the same address—great if your support group meets weekly. Only one Teacher’s Helper comes with group subscriptions, in which case web access to the Teacher’s Helpers is very valuable. Overall, this is a tremendous resource for a bargain price.
