My Take
Overall, this website is an excellent resource for K-5 and students in special education. The articles are the perfect length, engaging, and the questions are both literal and inferential. I also like how the articles can be linked to Google classroom.
How I Use It
I use this website to build students nonfiction reading comprehension. Students read the articles in small groups or independently, apply various reading strategies, and answer the comprehension questions at the end. The questions are very good, both literal and inferential.

DOGO News is Great!

The students also really enjoy the video that goes along with each article. The best part about the website is that it is great for advanced learners as well as ELL and special education students because they can choose to have it read to them. There are also activities for the students at the end of each lesson.
