Great site for quick reading passages with questions to practice reading comprehension. There are both free and paid versions of this site. Articles included are for students grades 2-12 and include assessments. Includes several nonfiction articles about current events, Social Studies topics, Science topics and now Social-Emotional Learning topics.

There is also a play button to have the passages be read aloud to the students. Visit this site for fiction and nonfiction articles that you can read or print, along with reading comprehension activities. I have used this site for years and am loving the new interface. It also has different videoes, quizzes and activities to go with the books. This site has so many popular books and student favorites broken down by age and grade.

Even writing just a quick summary using paper and pencil will keep their reading skills sharp! If you are using this site during distance learning times, have students watch the picture book read aloud and complete any reader response activity. Pause throughout the reading to ask comprehension questions and practice skills and strategies you are teaching. There are so many fun read-aloud videoes of favorite children's picture books that keep students engaged and are read aloud by many familiar faces. This is my go-to website, especially during downtime. Highly engaging reading articles to share and discuss together, or have students complete independent nonfiction reader reflection activities.

You can access the articles even without a subscription. I love this site to read nonfiction current event articles. Whether you choose to complete activities from these sites together as a class on the smartboard, assign to students to complete independently at home, or use during whole class computer class, they are sure to engage your students!
