Why can't I receive my lesson earlier in the week?

Current Lesson

Our goal with The Wired Word weekly lesson is to cover significant events in the news from the current week. Because each week brings a variety of news stories, we intentionally wait until as late as Wednesday to write the lessons. This approach allows us to review as much of the week’s news as possible before selecting the stories that will form the basis of the lesson. Once selected, we write, edit, proofread, and upload the lesson to ensure it is ready to be emailed to subscribers by Thursday morning.

Most weeks, the lesson is ready and on the website by late Wednesday afternoon.

Our lessons are as current as this week’s headlines!

Archived Lessons

If you need a lesson before Thursday, all past lessons are available online and can be searched by keyword. This allows you to quickly find a lesson that fits your needs earlier in the week.

From the homepage, you’ll find two links (see the image below) to access past lessons, which are listed in chronological order starting with the most recent. To read full details about finding and using past lessons, click here.

Once you select the lesson you’d like to use, you can distribute it to your class just as you would a current week’s lesson.
