I like Newsela. . .and the current events are still free. I wish they could make it a database service instead of the direction they are going . . . making it curriculum. :(

EBSCO

https://www.cnn.com/cnn10

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/extra/

 https://youngzine.org/

Does anyone use this one? https://www.studentnewsdaily.com/ I can't really get a read on it as far as bias.

Hello,

Does anyone have any websites they can recommend for 8th-grade students to gather current event articles from?

I would like to give them as many options of reliable resources on this as possible.

Thank you!
