Great tool to build literacy skills

My Take

I think this teaching tool is a great way to help students utilize the literacy skills they have been taught and practice those skills to become better readers while deepening their knowledge on content area subject matter. I like that students are able to change the reading level to build their confidence while also challenging them to become better readers. I utilize Newsela to supplement the lessons that I teach to help students gain a deeper understanding while providing students the opportunity to make real world connections with the content we are covering in class.
