Newsela is the word...


"Non-fiction texts govern as much as 90% of the reading and writing done by literate adults and comprise more than 70% of standardized assessments." -Tony Stead and Linda Hoyt

If you haven't heard of Newsela, I am about to make your day.  While reading adoptions are providing more non-fiction reading choices, there are just not enough. Newsela is your solution. It provides a huge library of well-written current event articles at 5 different reading levels. So, the entire class is reading about the same information, just at each student's individual Lexile reading level!  As the teacher, you can assign certain articles (and reading levels) to certain students.  Each student can then take a quiz on his/her reading. All of this is free to use.  If you wish to pay for the pro subscription, you have even more options.  Amazing!

When you Alt+Tab , all your browser tabs will appear as their own thumbnail—as if they were their own browser windows. Microsoft Don't like this? That's fine. Microsoft says you can disable it from Settings > System > Multitasking. You can also set it to only show your last three or five browser tabs so tab overload doesn't swamp your Alt+Tab switcher, too. This feature is just for Microsoft Edge right now, but we could easily see it coming to other web browsers. Edge is based on the same Chromium code that forms the basis for Chrome, for example—Google might enable this feature in Google Chrome, too. It's easy to see Mozilla Firefox taking advant...
