Calling all astronauts! As you head back to school, this crew needs you—and your community newspaper—to complete their interplanetary launch. By solving puzzles, riddles and tasks you’ll help the Captain and the brave crew of the Spaceship Explorer reach their destination. Calculate sums, spell words, analyze photos, hunt for antonyms, and locate homonyms with the help of your “hands-on” hard copy of the newspaper. A newspaper can be written on, cut up, colored, folded, and provide lessons in reading, math, history, science, art, physical education and more. Your next great adventure begins at your own desk as you learn to explore all the newspaper has to offer. Blastoff to another school year with Kid Scoop!
