resources to find nf texts Sarah Tsao

Here are a couple websites to find great nonfiction texts for all grades! On both of these sites, you can get the same article in multiple Lexile levels. A great way to differentiate and give each student the same content. The texts are also engaging to students and you can easily find texts that appeal to your students interests!

Newsela also has text sets created, so there are lots of texts related to one topic. They also have multiple choice and short response questions made too. A lot of the text sets come with videos as well.

Story works has this great feature called “mini reads” which I use a lot for students that need comprehension practice, but do not yet have the stamina to read lengthy texts.
