Differentiated Current Events Menu with Depth and Complexity Icons
This Differentiated Current Events Choice Menu with Depth and Complexity Icons can be used with lessons on Current events in the classroom and for use in Interactive Student Notebooks.

This year I made Current Events Scrapbooks(basically a different type of ISN) for my students by binding 15 pieces of 12 x 18 in.
