This is a great way for kids to stay in tune with current events, as well as check for comprehension with the questions that follow articles!

This app was probably one of the best downloads I've ever made (Not to mention it was FREE!). Dogonews is the best place to go for current events for kids, because kids can understand the writing style and learn interesting things with the wide array of subjects! My family and school can't get enough of Dogo!!!

DOGOnews is an amazing application, and it FREE! As a future teacher i think this is a really great way to find outside resources. It makes learning fun! With the wide variety of topics that it covers it can appeal to various interests.The one change that i would appreciate is to simplify the navigational aspect of this app. As an adult, i manage, but young students may find it frustrating and difficult. As the other reviews point out, this is a great homework resource, and it can be used as a weekly current events information. It is not only great for the classroom, but great for home- as one of the reviews mentioned the impact it had on strengthening family bonds. Great app all in all!
