Check out our great new student resource, Newsela.

 

Newsela has the

"most relevant and interesting nonfiction content, including daily news articles, famous speeches, primary sources, and biographies. Every article is written at 5 different reading levels, making it easy for an entire class to read the same content at a level that’s just right for each reader."

This tool will help students to not only understand more of our world, but also to help them comprehend and think critically about everything they read and hear.

 

Parents also have the ability to create an account and then assign articles to their student, watching their reading comprehension improve over time. Follow these instructions closely to set up the parent account: https://goo.gl/dLY48Z
