TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID THIS...
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Merissa V. says... "This lesson was by far one of the most successful yet I have used on TPT. Even my least motivated students were extremely engaged with this activity. I am proud of their final work."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lana P. says... "The resource was great for examining fake news for our English and Conspiracy Theories class. As students have to evaluate the websites they use, it clearly outlined a process they can understand. As we are in New Zealand, it was helpful that the resource was editable, so I could include local content."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Koby, M says... "Used this when my students were preparing for a presentation, where the facts they had to share were required to be true and accurate. Many of my students were also sharing false facts on other topics so this was a good resource to stop incorrect news from being shared."
This TpT Top Seller will not disappoint when it comes to providing a nice balance of direct instruction and freedom to let students personalize their learning due to the range and diversity of resources and lesson content.
