Let’s Read Science Times Together

ALL1383-Z     First 6 Weeks     Monday 9:00-10:20     Start Date 9-Sep

When the first issue of the Science section of the The New York Times appeared in 1978, I was teaching science to eighth graders. Reading the Science Times each week became a homework assignment. Students’ parents were also hooked. I have been reading it ever since. Let’s read it together! Each week, we will read the previous week’s publication and discuss articles on the many wonders of science. The Tuesday edition of The New York Times is required for this class. Each Thursday, you will be notified about which articles to read for the following Monday’s class discussion.
