- (2017-09-12) Carline Richardson: Newsela is a great app to use to integrate literacy across the curriculum. It allows you to assign articles based on your content area. You can differentiate by assigning student different versions of the text based on lexiles. They also have some articles translated into Spanish.
- (2017-05-28) One of the best educational apps for reading there is! You can not only find articles based on difficulty level (and they can increase/decrease the difficulty on the same subject), you can also search based on what standard you are teaching or what concept you are teaching to your students. You can also find text sets, and great non-fiction connectors to whatever fictional book your students are reading. I use it when I teach my historical fiction and to make current-event connections for their research projects and persuasive essays.

- (2016-02-18) I absolutely LOVE using this website. Students are able to read according to lexile level, highlight, take notes and take quiz. It's very useful for my Bilingual students. They can read the same article in English or Spanish to help with comprehension. Articles are current so extremely beneficial for students. The site also provides resources, reports and Quicklinks that are also very useful.

- (2014-09-10) Logan Stanley: it is a very good app for high school students.
- (2014-05-25) Rick Powels: Best upper-elementary reading tool I have found to support Common Core instruction. Editors take current events and rewrite them at different reading levels (reported in Lexiles). Many articles come with a quiz at each level. I have found my students will read the same article up to four times to challenge themselves. It is very well done. The Pro feature is free for 30 days and allows teachers to track progress. I am on the trial and love it, but probably won't continue the pro feature at $18.00 a student per year. The free content is useful enough.
