I plan to make a digital "Getting to Know Newsela" resource for teachers in my district.  I will meet with grade levels to encourage and support teachers in implementing Newsela in their classrooms.  I will put out a monthly resource sharing new ideas for implementing Newsela in a cross-curricular way to meet the needs of all their students.  I will also help Teachers understand how the data can help inform their teaching and help differentiate instruction.

I will use Newsela to collaborate with my other history colleagues in order to further support our students in increasing their literacy levels. In addition to increasing their reading levels, Newsela is a way for the history department to further analyze primary source texts and engage students in discussions about said primary sources. The aforementioned will further provide opportunities for students to use evidence to support their findings of primary source texts.

I am a virtual 5th grade teacher, and I am so excited to share this engaging technology with my team.  Our students come to us with a variety of skills, interests, and abilities, and I believe that NewsELA will be a way that we will be able to build background, offer differentiation, and build community in our online classroom.  I love that the text sets could be used for independent reading groups, and then we could meet in a live lesson.  This would encourage socialization in the digital world, presenting skills, and discussion about interesting texts.

I'm creating a cross-curricular unit on climate change that brings together the science behind it, the affects on ecoystems and on communities, the politics of the debate, and the economics around the solutions. This brings together math, science, ELA, and Social Studies so that those teachers can present real-world connections for the academic skills and learning targets we're assessing.

We are using a custom collection this year built by NewsELA for our SS curriculum in 6th grade, which will roll out to 7th and 8th the following years  and I want to be able to get their ball rolling as well. English teachers have been using the bare minimums of NewsELA and I think knowing more about the skills and the ability to annotate will be useful in teaching others on my ELA PLC!
