Spotlight on Professional Learning
Newsela.com
They showed us this free resource at our meeting Wednesday. It is free and appropriately written for specific grade levels. The article distributed on Tuesday was about Kobe Bryant. Interesting non-fiction that you can relate to current events. How does it get any better? They also mentioned tweentribune.com as another similar resource.
