[ISLMA-Share] Newsela

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I have had a great experience with Newsela, as have history and English
teachers at my high school.  It is easy to change Lexile ranges - this way
the entire class can read the same article at his/her comfort level, and
discussions do not suffer.  It is easy to create reading quizzes as well.
