CNN Student News
Teaching Kids the News is a newspaper-ish site that offers
articles about
current events written just for kids. The site is based in
Canada, so the
Montreal Canadiens may be covered more than the NJ Devils, but
most of the
coverage is relevant for us as well. It's also a good place to
see the slight
difference in perspective presented by our northern neighbors.
