Throughout Europe, 700 million Europeans are represented in the Council of Europe's 46 member states and all are encouraged to discover more languages at any age, as part of or alongside their studies. This stems from the Council of Europe's conviction that linguistic diversity is a tool for achieving greater intercultural understanding and a key element in the rich cultural heritage of our continent. Therefore, the Council of Europe, in Strasbourg, promotes plurilingualism in the whole of Europe.

At the Council of Europe's initiative, the European Day of Languages has been celebrated every year since 2001 on 26 September - together with the European Commission.

Each of these classroom news stories have been written and designed by our team of experienced teachers, so you can feel safe in the knowledge that your learners will be accessing child-friendly information.

At Twinkl, we understand that it can be difficult to raise and discuss many of the latest current events with young people. With the rise of social media and constant stream of breaking headlines, students will likely come across information from a wide variety of news sources that they not be able to understand. This is why we have curated our collection of news reports for kids, current event resources, and more to provide a reliable and child-friendly source of current news.

The articles included in our collection are factual, balanced and explore a wide range of topics. From fun news report that give the latest scoops about animals and historical finds, to more serious stories about political elections and climate change, we've got you covered. Tackle real-world events and current affairs in your classroom or home learning environment with confidence, every day! You'll also find a fun selection of interactive activities, like our weekly quizzes, to test their knowledge of the news each week.

What skills do these latest news for kids support?

We know that you can't be an expert in everything all the time, which is why Twinkl NewsRoom is here to support you. Each of these news stories contains the latest news for kids, background information and glossaries to keep your learners informed on a range of interesting topics.

They also come with an accompanying Reading Comprehension Pack to promote literacy skills. These packs include a range of time-saving resources, such as: reading comprehension questions, answers, guidance for educators, extension tasks, and sometimes even craft activities.

For more support when using news for kids in your teaching, take a look at our Teacher Guidance, written by experienced teachers. For support with each individual story, refer to the activity plan included in its accompanying reading comprehension pack. This document will include advice on how to make the most of each kids' news article.

Is reading the latest news good for kids?

It can be tricky to know which of the latest news for kids to share with your students, some of it may be sensitive or distressing, whilst some may simply not interest younger students. However, here at Twinkl NewsRoom, we believe that latest news for kids can be extremely beneficial. There are many benefits to introducing them to the news. Here are some examples of how reading them aids your child's learning:

Expand student's understanding of the world with articles for kids! Reading age-appropriate news helps kids expand their understanding of the world around them. They'll become more knowledgeable about a variety of current events and affairs from around the globe. This helps them form their own opinions on important topics.

Articles for kids are a brilliant way to build confidence. Armed with relevant knowledge from articles for kids, they can feel more confident when it comes to having a voice. They can speak up and join in with conversations happening in their community and around the globe.

Teach young students to debate with accuracy and skill. Talking about the news is a great way to improve their debating skills. Use the discussion prompts and questions included with Twinkl NewsRoom's PowerPoints and resource packs to stimulate healthy discussions among those in your classroom or at home.

Learn how to spot reliable news articles. Those who read trustworthy news articles for kids are less likely to fall prey to fake news online. If they have a solid understanding of Real News Vs. Fake News, they'll be able to spot it more quickly when they come across it on their own. This is an especially useful skill to promote if your child likes to spend a lot of time browsing online on social media or video sharing sites.

Learn curriculum skills for English. Articles for kids expose kids to new vocabulary and terminology that's not too complex for them to grasp, but still pushes them to learn new things. This is especially beneficial when reading news about their hobbies or subjects they're interested in, such as Science News or Animal News. They'll become one step closer to being experts in the field!

Three Norwegian educators connected their students with classes in South Dakota.

A high school English teacher in New York connected his students with a middle school Science class in Ohio.

Question words
Question words are amongst the most important vocabulary you'll learn. Not only will they allow you to extract information from others, but you can hold whole conversations with these words alone! Ask any four year old! This lesson covers: How much/many? When? Where? How? Why? Which? What? Who?
The partitive article "some"
The partitive article "some" or "any" is used a lot more in French than in English. It's a pretty simple one, and a good one to master if you'd prefer to have some cake, rather than the whole thing.
Vocabulary and phrases for time concepts
This lesson illustrates some common time concepts, including how to say , "sometimes", "early", "late" - Not to mention the essential phrase, "I eat cheese all the time!"
Phrases for when your French deserts you
If you're planning a jaunt into French-speaking territory, you're bound to encounter communication problems at one point or other. Knowing how to politely say "I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you're saying" can be pretty useful.
Making things negative
How to turn a positive statement into a negative statement using ne ... pas. This lesson will show you how to say that you do not like cats, or that you do not want to dance.
My, your, his, her...
Possessive adjectives are what let us say that it's his bike, her lint collection, our troublesome dog, or their noisy rooster. French enjoys a few more of these words than we do in English, and there are some interesting rules for how to use them.
Possession in nouns
If all those possessive adjectives in the previous lesson made you sad, you'll enjoy this lesson. It's a lot more straightforward. You'll learn how to talk about things that belong to specific people: E.g., Antoine's shirt, Catherine's skirt, the children's bedroom, etc.
The definite article
Even if you're brand new to studying French, you probably know that the French like to put la and le in front of words, right? These are the French words for "the", otherwise known as the definite article. Here's how you know which one to use!
Talking about the weather
Otherwise known as the best conversation starter, ever. Learn how to say "it's warm", and "it's raining", and you'll always have something to contribute to a conversation!
French idioms and expressions
Every language has its weird expressions, and French is no different. In this lesson you'll learn what it means to lose your goats, put it under your elbow, or to have a 'fat morning'.

Aufgrund der Covid-19-Pandemie hat das CeDiLE beschlossen, seine Inhalte teilweise anzupassen, um den Lehrkräften, die jetzt Fremdsprachen von Zuhause unterrichten müssen, zu innovativen Alternativen zu inspirieren. Die Redaktion des CeDiLE bietet hier einige nützliche Quellen für Fernunterricht für Französisch, Deutsch, Italienisch, Englisch oder noch weitere Sprachen an. Um Unterrichtsbeispiele zu veranschaulichen, werden wir Erlebnisberichte von Lehrpersonen veröffentlichen, die in Zeiten der Ausgangssperre ihre didaktischen Strategien erklären.

Appell für Erlebnisberichte: Fokus auf die Primar- und 1. Sekundarstufe

Wir werden dem Unterricht auf der Primar- und Sekundarstufe I besondere Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Digitale Unterrichtsformen sind auf der 2. Sekundar- und Tertiärstufe gängiger als auf den niedrigeren Schulstufen, wo viele praktische und technische Herausforderungen bevorstehen.

Laura Buechel: This is clever! Do I understand it correctly that there are, for example, groups of 4 and ONE of the characters can ONLY say one of those four words at a time? That would be funny! The example you put in will be too hard, I imagine, so perhaps leave it out with kids?
Jackie: Yes, only one of the characters can say one of the four words (or all of them); the others can speak as they whish

Show Answer

How can I have fun on a rainy day?

There are lots of ways to have fun when it's raining outside. You could create some art or bake something with a parent. Or escape to a new world with a good book. You could build your own cozy reading fort, turn out the lights, and read with a flashlight. Or you could try balloon tennis. Attach a paper plate to a paint stick or ruler to make your tennis racket. Blow up a balloon and let the games begin!
