CTN saw a multi-faceted opportunity to create a means for student engagement with The Tablet. Parents of diocesan students have been supporting The Tablet as part of the technology initiative of DeSales Media Group, which puts iPads and Chromebooks into schools. The Tablet Jr was designed so all family members can read the faith-based articles, and catechists will have an age-appropriate resource to read with their classes.
Through months of collaboration between CTN and The Tablet editorial staff, a design that includes student articles and artwork based on Catholic Social Teachings was created. Additional elements include a question-and-answer column, a diocesan history column, and fun activities such as word puzzles and online interactives. Each edition is accompanied by an instructional guide created by CTN to bring the Tablet Jr. into our religion classrooms. Our first edition was published in January 2020.
