Informational Texts

Exposing students to expository texts is crucial. But, we want to find sources that are engaging, contemporary, and tied to our content. Ask students to partner or team up and discuss the curricular connections. I always suggest the following sources for high-interest and leveled texts. 
1. Newsela
2. Readworks
3. npr.org
4. PBS Newshour
4. TweenTribune
