[ISLMA-Share] Newsela

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Dear Susan,

I use Newsela every day. I really like the ability to select the reading
level. I just used the article on John Glenn's death as a connector to a
discussion about the movie Hidden Figures. I am also using a article about
students going to court over climate change. This is a great resource.
