This post was inspired by a visit to Culloden Academy Library. Thank you to Michelle Gowans, Network Librarian, who flagged up the following resource.
Did you know that you can use your High Life Highland Library card to access 2,200 newspapers across the world for free?
Whether it be a guided reading lesson extracting information or examining the writer’s techniques, a critical literacy lesson looking at persuasion and bias, or a research skills lesson where learners are sourcing information from texts – Press Display provides access to the lesson stimulus.
