I am the head of a small independent special school. I use this resource with the whole school every week. It has turned into a competition and students are now reading newspapers and listening to the news for homework tasks. We award credits to the top five students. All of the staff join in and it really is an enjoyable, informative way to end a dreary Wednesday afternoon.
