Newsela makes it easy for teachers to find high-interest current event articles and assign them to students at a variety of reading levels. It pulls content from a variety of high-quality sources (AP, Washington Post, the Smithsonian, etc.) and presents the text at a variety of different Lexile levels to meet diverse student needs. The articles are updated daily, so you can find something that's in the news now and put it in front of your students. It also generates really easy-to-use data for teachers through short comprehension quizzes at the end of each article, along with optional free-response writing prompts. Furthermore, when I've had to contact Newsela's support team, they are very responsive and open to suggestions on improving the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the articles at the lowest Lexile levels are very short, so students finish them quickly. An option to adjust article length would be helpful to ensure students are getting enough text to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
