Teachers Love FOCUS on the NEWS

We have many happy customers, some of whom have been subscribing for over 20 years. This is what some of them have to say about using FOCUS on the NEWS in the classroom:

"I have used FOCUS on the NEWS in my classrooms from the very beginning of its inception twenty plus years ago. It has been an invaluable asset to my teaching and has always been eagerly awaited by my students each week.”–Randy (Kansas)

“My students have experienced this activity for close to 20 years. Old students who I now have their kids in class, ask if I still play Current Events. It has been for many, the only time they are exposed to the current news, and it is done in a fun manner.” –Jim (Minnesota)

“YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Thanks again for the great news game, I have been using it for years here in AZ and way back when, when I taught in NH. Students LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!”–Denise (Arizona)

“I love the program and am thrilled with it. When the LA times stopped their program about 6 years ago, I was so upset. Coming across this was a life saver.”–Mark (California)

“[O]ur kids LOVE the format of FOCUS ON THE NEWS...I give BIG prizes at the end of the year like boom boxes, walkmans,etc....the competition is unreal!!!! Thanks again for your wonderful materials!!”–Mike (Illinois)

“I teach current issues second semester each year. Last year I subscribed to your site and loved it. I'm back and I would love to renew.” –Steve(Georgia)

“I have been teaching middle school currents events without a specified curriculum or a budget, and it difficult to find materials appropriate for this age level. With the discussion questions and the links I can really build my curriculum around the MAPmasters now. The links save me so much time, and we can use them to provide information for discussion and debate. The MAPmasters provide really student-friendly materials on topics relevant to the moment’s news. Thanks!”–Marcia (Indiana)
