FROM THE EDITOR

DEAR READERS,

Happy birthday to us! TIME magazine’s first issue (期刊) came out on March 3, 1923. Sure, the 96th isn’t the most special

birthday, comparing with the 100th birthday. But we take every opportunity (机会) to celebrate. TIME for Kids came along just

a little bit later, in 1995. Soon, we will have our 25th birthday!

We have run our Kid Reporter program for many years. Many kids who took part in the program as a reporter are

professional journalist(职业记者) now. While they were working with TFK, they caught some great opportunities, like

interviewing political leaders, famous people, Olympic athletes, scientists, and more.

Do you dream of being a reporter? Come and join us! On March 15, we will hold our annual (一年一度的) competition to

find our next group of TIME for Kids Reporters. Editors from TFK will choose 10 best students.

I hope you will have a chance to report for our magazines and websites during the 2019- 2020 school year.

All the best,

Andrea Delbanco

EDITORIAL DIRECTOR
