"Newsela has reorganized their content in a way that allows a teacher to examine their units of study and then search Newsela for the same units. For example, if a teacher is working teaching Ancient Civilizations, Newsela has organized their content around those units."

"I'm most excited for teachers to continue to have a central place to look for (and actually find) content that fits the needs of their Social Studies classroom. "

"With the release of Newsela Social Studies we have reemphasized our commitment to the subject area, shown we value the literacy work being done in those classrooms, and enhanced our teacher's ability to meet the needs of both there students and their standards!"

"I have assigned articles about topics from the American Revolution prior to discussing it in social studies. By doing that, my students felt confident enough about the topic and it increased the likelihood of participation with their peers during whole class lessons."
