GO! FLIPPerfect for flipped classrooms, Scholastic GO! offers thousands
of opportunities for students to explore topics on their

facilitated by their teacher.
At school, teachers can support learning with:
• Lesson plans
• Project ideas
• Quizzes and activities
• Weblinks for related content discussions
• Primary sources
