      I think the lesson plans offered on this site are excellent. Even if you just use them as the basis for your own lesson, they are really comprehensive and interesting.

      You could do this word of the day exercise using any newspaper. I love the idea of finding a specific word in a newspaper!

      I LOVE the idea of having my class read about an issue and then write letters to the editor. Reading comprehension, current events, communications, writing, constructing a logical argument, and civic engagement - all in one lesson!

    The New York Times has a blog full of lesson plans related to news content in their paper. It's an incredibly rich website, full of ideas for tons of different kind of lesson plans - current events, journalism/writing, civics, international events, and many, many more. This is the kind of website you can visit as a teacher to get ideas or have your students use as part of a class project.
