Each NEWSELA text is offered at multiple tiers, for every student, no matter their reading level. With this site, teachers can be teaching one nonfiction topic, with one article, and have every students reading need met.The higher achieving students will not longer be able to rush thorough the reading because the level has been lowered to meet the needs of majority of the students who are below their level. Instead these students will be challenged in their reading and comprehension skills, by having an article that is at a higher level, while still receiving the same content and instruction. On the other hand, teachers no longer have to worry about students falling behind on the content because they cannot understand the written word. On top of the variety in reading levels for each article on the site, there is also assessments, like quizzes, annotations, and writing prompts, that hit every entry level. Students can improve the critical thinking skills and measure their progress in real time.
