I am curious. Cobblestone magazines are expensive. Do you buy one subscription for your classroom and use it for the entire class? Has anyone used a periodical for third grade?

Three magazines, one for world cultures, one for US> history, and one for classics (greek, Roman etc.) They are aimed at grades 5 - 8. Issues are themed on a topic under the umbrella of each mag series. You can back order. Each issues has approx 6 articles plus extras. I used them for lit circles, using one for whole class modeling, then had groups report on other articles in issue (mapping, using lit circle roles, etc.) They are great for social studies topics.
