What students see
You are anchoring this week's news. Report two things that happened at school and one thing coming up. Look at the camera and speak as if the whole school is watching.
Why it works
School news gives students a real audience and a deadline, and the class or school gets a regular way to hear what is happening. Each anchor practices writing and speaking to the camera.
How to run it
- Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
- Share the Topic link with your students.
- Approve posts as they come in. Until then only the person who posted and Space admins can see them.
Make it yours
Rotate anchors every week and include a reporter from each grade. Younger classes can report on the class pet, the weather, or what they learned.
