Here is a sprout based on the Scientific Literacy for Senior Students sprout. Only this time it is simplified, there is only one RSS feed for the students to choose from and it links to Science News for Kids so the work is pitched lower.

Scientific Literacy: Senior students
This sprout is a handy homework or quick lesson aimed at promoting better scientific literacy. It supplies the students with newsfeeds for three science news sites and encourages them to reference their work. The objective is for the students to practise extracting relevant information from an article and creating a summary that is readily understood by their peers. It may require them to do further research in order to clarify concepts.
