Current Events for the Classroom

For Teachers

What this tool is

Current Events for the Classroom is a simple, classroom-safe way to bring news into grades 6-12. Each story includes a neutral summary, a student-friendly version, and ready-made discussion questions so you can focus on teaching, not hunting for articles.

What it is not

This is not a social feed or an opinion site. There are no comments, no student accounts, and no ads. The goal is to give you neutral, age-appropriate material you can adapt to your own curriculum and classroom norms.

Filter Stories

Use the filters to choose topics and grade levels, then open Teacher View for summaries and questions or Student View for a simplified version to project or share.
