Introducing the Kiwi Kids News Literacy Booklet
At Kiwi Kids News, we believe that great reading leads to great thinking — and that’s exactly why we’ve created the Kiwi Kids News Literacy Booklet for Term 2.
This 20-page resource is packed with engaging, purposeful literacy activities that align perfectly with the articles published on our site each week. Whether you’re in the classroom or setting up independent learning, this booklet is designed to get your students reading, writing, and thinking critically about the world around them.
📝 What’s Inside?
Each week of the school term is broken into a series of literacy-based activities for students to complete after reading Kiwi Kids News articles. These tasks include:
-
Comprehension questions
-
Creative responses
-
Opinion writing prompts
-
Vocabulary challenges
-
And even a guide on how to write a newspaper article
We’ve included a wide variety of tasks so students are not just reading passively — they’re engaging, analysing, and responding in creative and thoughtful ways.
🎯 Low Entry, High Ceiling Design
The Literacy Booklet is intentionally designed to be independent and flexible. Activities are low entry but high ceiling — meaning students of all levels can access the content and extend their thinking as far as they are ready to go. It’s perfect for classrooms with a wide range of learning needs.
💡 Perfect For:
-
Daily literacy rotations
-
Homework or home learning
-
Fast finishers and early birds
-
Digital or print-based learning
-
Independent or small group tasks
With 20 full pages of fresh, relevant content linked to current news, this booklet is a powerful tool to help keep students engaged in literacy learning all term long.
