PBS NewsHour Classroom: Venerable, Non-partisan News Brand Offers Daily Videos, Discussions
PBS NewsHour Classroom is a website that provides news for students and resources for teachers. An offshoot of the daily TV program PBS NewsHour, it presents middle and high-school students with tools and resources to help them make sense of current and historical events. The site is divided into drop-down sections: Daily News Lessons, Subjects, Lesson Plans, Classroom Voices, and Journalism in Action.
Daily News Lessons include news videos, transcripts, supporting links, focus questions, and an extension activity, such as a Kahoot quiz or additional reading suggestions. All of these daily lessons can be browsed and re-used as needed. The Subjects section collects these daily lessons as well as other resources. The Lesson Plans section has a massive collection of fully fleshed out learning experiences on a variety of topics spanning social studies, media literacy, STEM, arts, and more. The Classroom Voices section curates essays, articles, videos, and discussions from teachers and students in the PBS community.
