Get the most out of the unit of work with our teacher guide, which includes all the lesson plans and extra guidance to help you teach NewsWise.
The NewsWise learning journey takes pupils through each of the NewsWise themes in order: they first develop an understanding of what news is, then the skills to question and challenge what they read, see and hear in the media, and finally put these skills into practice by producing their own news reports.
You and your pupils are about to embark on Journalist Training School. Pupils will learn about how the news is made, how to navigate the news and ultimately produce their own news.
To get started, pupils test their knowledge in this fun fake or real quiz.
When they finish Journalist Training School, pupils will take another quiz to see how much they've learned, before they graduate as news-savvy journalists. You'll be able to share the answers to both quizzes at the end of the project.

Before your class of brand new journalists can officially graduate from Journalist Training School, we need to put their skills to the test! Our short, online quiz checks their fake news detective skills and asks some more questions about what they've learned along the way.

Complete the teacher survey too and you'll get a link to the quiz answers, so you can share these with your class. (We recommend completing the teacher survey shortly before, while, or soon after pupils complete their quiz, so you can share the answers with them in the same lesson.)
We'd love to see your pupils' finished news reports! Email them to us at newswise@theguardianfoundation.org - we might be able to publish them on our website!
