Twenty-first century learners must be able get news and information from a variety of sources, print and on-line. Students must learn to be critical consumers of this information and consider the source of the on-line information for credibility.
Practice in reading news articles develops a student's ability to think critically.

A teacher can assign the same article to each student, but at his or her own lexile. Newsela not only gives the lexile, but also the grade level and the word count for each story. Most stories have a Spanish version available which is useful for bilingual or ESL students.
