"The way NIE teaches lessons using the newspaper is fun and interactive. It is a multi-sensory hands-on approach to learning that engages even the most reluctant learners. Every teacher deserves the opportunity to experience the wealth of information, interactive fun and curriculum based lessons found in an NIE workshop."

"My students and I use the NIE to connect current events to the past. The program is definitely worthwhile!"
