Current Events Organizer (Sample)
This blank organizer with example content makes it simple to record news analyses.
Students can analyze current events individually or in groups as a regular classroom practice and note their findings in this organizer.
One way to use this for developing news literacy and civic skills is to have students follow a particular news story in a range of different media outlets to analyze how each outlet may cover the story slightly differently.
