Edutech for Teachers - Cool Tools for the 21st Century

Literacy Shed

Check out this great resource called Tween Tribune and it's produced by the Smithsonian. It has a plethora of high-interest non-fiction, current event articles for students to read. It's free and it changes frequently. There are three different grade-level tabs you can choose from (K-4, 5-8, 9-12). Each article has at least four different lexile levels to choose from as well, so students can read the same article, but at their level. Also, there is a critical thinking question at the end of each article for students to discuss or answer. Check it out here:
