Scholastic
The Scholastic Website (http://www.scholastic.com/home/) is
a website created to provide teachers, students, and parents the literacy
resources that may help improve reading and writing. This website was found in
1920 as a single classroom magazine. Maurice Robinson created the first issues
of the Western Pennsylvania Scholastic. He became the world’s largest publisher
and distributor of children’s books. His son, Dick Robinson, now Chairman,
President, and CEO of Scholastic, leads an organization that has grown into a
$1.6 billion global publishing and education company.
This website provides very effective
and different activities for children at different ages. Some activities include
the integration of other different subject areas that can also help enhance
children’s understanding about the world. The Book Club enables teachers to
order books to guide them manually. Teachers can also find lessons and ideas
for any particular curriculum. Teachers can also find different activities to
provide students in the classroom.
One good thing about this website is
how its layout for parents is organized. Parents can find resourceful
information as to how to teach literacy at home in preparing children or
scaffolding them in the literacy world. Kids learn at school, but home is their
primary environment of learning.
There are story books, videos,
games, printable materials, blogs, and detail information to guide teachers,
parents, students, and even any educational individual who is interested in improving
children’s skills in reading and writing. This website is highly recommended
for all it can offer. The website itself is very attractive in a way to attract
children as it provides very effective resources.
