Love This, But
I am a student and use this at school. I it’s my favorite app on my school i-pad. Because it’s summer, lately I’ve started to miss the app and it great news, so I went on App Store and got it. Once it was download, I went on to News O Matic, and then it asked me for my username and password. I thought it was okay because I know how to put that stuff in. I put in my school username/password and it said incorrect. So then I used my Mom’s Username/password and it said incorrect. Witch I do not know if we use the app in fifth grade because we barely used it in forth, but I loved it when we did. Long story short, I do not know if this is my fault or the apps. It really could be mine. You guys should really get this app, just know a good username/password. Enjoy your day, bye.

Fantastic!
I can’t tell you much I hear students enjoying the articles. Great content and super engaging for students.
Great content !
Love this app, recommended by my son’s teacher. Simple way to explain kids what’s going on in Ukraine for example.
So valuable for teachers!
This app is incredibly useful for my class. My students get to read all the time from home!
Amazing nonfiction resource
News-O-Matic makes nonfiction fun for young readers. The wide range of news stories, the fun design, and the videos and images are great for kids.

I love reading this!!
My teacher got this app for my class. And I read it every night when i get home. I love it!!! It is so much fun to do all the time.
Such a great app!
The daily news is great and my children love it! They’ve shown me the app a couple times and I’m always interested in the story and the graphics, even as an adult! Great tool a resource and would 100% recommend for educators and parents :)
Perfect app to share the news with students
This app includes 5 new stories every weekday covering an impressive range of subjects. There are great interviews with scientists, authors, and other experts. A range of interactive features help students engage with the articles. Excellent news source for kids!

My students love reading the news!!!
Great app!! We love reading the news each day, as the students enjoy the sports coverage and the special features. A great way to learn!!!
Shows kids the world!
Wonderful app that provides age-appropriate content to make our kids global citizens.
NEWS-O-MATIC IS THE BEST APP EVER
News-O-Matic is a great app!! I’ve became so smart because of this app. Kids are learning so much faster! On this app you can draw, do puzzles, read, and more. I would recommend using this app. 😛
So disappointing
I was looking for exactly this kind of app for my second graders. I thought there was a free version, but no such luck. It wouldn’t let me create an account. No one in a Title 1 school can afford the price.
This app is great for everyone
I have a 7 and 9 year old son and daughter. They both always come back from school and ask for my phone to see the news o matic stories. They have been so interested in current events and they are so much more excited to learn. I love how they focus on exploring cool topics not just political news. They talk about space, how to keep a healthy environment and they also cover political news in a kid friendly way!!! They have made my kids like reading cool articles instead of playing video games. They let my kids draw on the app and they can even ask questions to Russ the editor. This app has made my kids love learning I can’t thank them enough.

Principal Concern
This is a great app. If it were offered to educators at a less expensive rate than current many of our teachers would purchase it. This is a great app.
Poor kids are locked out. How can you get this to us in schools for less
The current class subscription is expensive for those of us with low income kids... and that’s a lot of us.
Please help. We choose you get Scholastic. Be better.

Not fee friendly
This was a super app to use with multiple grade levels when it was free. Kids & families in poor districts do not have the luxury of owning an iPad much less exposure to current news.
Great app!
I can't believe that I had never heard of this app before! I am an educator - and there is no other nonfiction reading that engages kids like this. My third graders are begging every day to read the latest articles! Even in a time where the news can be tough to explain to young ones, I know I can always trust News o matic for balanced writing. This will be a part of my curriculum for years to come!

Stellar resource for literacy
I don't think there is another tool that gets students to love nonfiction quite like News-O-Matic. Kids literally beg to read it!
Good luck finding another resource that engages reluctant readers like this!
