The WORLDteen current events program is designed for pre-teens and young teenagers ages 11-14. WORLDteen editors select age-appropriate news that broadens young teens’ awareness of world events. In addition, stories in WORLDteen are written from an underlying biblical perspective, often integrated into the story. This helps readers develop discernment in the context of current events, building up both knowledge and wisdom. Online quizzes allow testing for reading comprehension.
WORLDteen consists of a print magazine delivered every other month and a website and mobile app that feature daily breaking news plus many more stories than in the magazine. Stories are grouped into major topic areas—similar to adult news outlets—helping readers begin the transition to consuming news as a young adult.
As a handy reminder and to provide structure for teaching current events, you’ll receive a weekly email that prompts you about a different topic each week and provides quick links to the online content. There is also a Teaching Guide with each new issue, providing additional tips and recommendations for teaching current events, as well as printable worksheets to make your current events study more effective.
The online Comments section following each news story allows readers to practice expressing their opinions by commenting on the stories, helping to prepare them for the exchange of ideas they will engage in as young adults. The Comments area is a safe, members-only monitored environment.
The structure, content, and biblical perspective of WORLDteen set it apart as a safe and effective program for teaching current events to today’s young teens.

And keep in mind that comments posted on WORLD News Group's website may be searchable on public search engines.
WORLD News Group reserves the right to delete or edit any comment as its editors determine. That WORLD News Group reserves this right does not mean that it will exercise such editorial control over the content of this site. Failure of WORLD News Group to delete or edit any material does not mean that we are accepting the content of any comment.
Any individual making a posting to this site agrees (by submitting the posting) to indemnify and hold WORLD News Group harmless from any and all liability or injury that WORLD News Group may incur by reason of any posting.
The posting of third-party copyright-protected content without the prior written permission of the copyright owner of that content is forbidden. In other words, do not copy and paste articles from other sites in your comments. Post links to those articles instead.
The Rules of Engagement
Here are the rules in participating in the comment threads on this site:
Do not engage in personal attacks.
If someone attacks you personally (rather than attacking your ideas), do not return evil for evil.
Recognize that within the comment threads on the site, many of us may have intrinsically irreconcilable ideological or theological differences. This does not necessarily make us haters, bigots, heretics, ignorant, etc. It means we subscribe to a different point of view. We are all thinking people, uniquely created by and for God.
Post comments as if you were having an in-person chat in a very public place. That might mitigate any tendency to be harsh with one another.
We expect each of you to post comments with humility and respect.
