Resource Blog #3
“Newsela” is a great website to help students who have a
hard time with reading and reading comprehension skills. Teachers select from
thousands of articles to assign to students, then they take a quiz or write
about what they read. This can be a great resource for us as teachers because we
will be able to assign our students readings for our content area based each students’
lexical score. So this in turn benefits us and our students because they are getting
the material needed for our class, at their own level, while helping them
improve their reading and reading comprehension skills.

I loved getting to explore this website, and definitely think it could be very useful. I thought it was cool how it has the different content areas as separate sections, which would definitely make it very easy, for us, as teachers, to find useful resources for our students. Also, I love how, just like you said, it helps improve their reading skills as well, which could be very beneficial to maybe a student who is not very good at reading. (WC:79)
