Through the non-profit, Bear Essential Educational Services (BEES), you can have Bear editors visit your school or organization to conduct free presentations on writing and/or reporting for kids! Details are online under the Teachers tab. Call the toll-free number to schedule or if you have questions.
This is a great time of the year to start your students in BEES’ literacy award-winning Young Reporters Program. Please encourage your students in grades 2 thru 8 to join this FREE writing program! Students choose the stories they want to cover, and those stories are edited before being published on the pages of Bear Essential News. Young Reporters are our eyes and ears at their school, on fun field trips and in their club or other afterschool activities. Please call 1-866-NEWS KID if you have any questions.
These worksheets and programs are brought to you by the 501(c)(3) non-profit Bear Essential Educational Services.
Enjoy your well-deserved break,
Stephen B Gin, editor
