by Anna Wade - Grade 9 LA teacher Jul 6, 2009

First, I think Youthink is an excellent resource for the classroom. It exposes the student to a print media, which in today's world, and their world, is something that is lacking. The format of the newspaper is eye-catching with the layout and the colour. They really enjoy having a forum to offer their ideas and talents and find it global in the sense that they are able to see what other students from other areas are into and enjoy. I believe having something like this (Youthink) encourages my students to think broader and experiment with their own writing, and for this I am grateful.
