Newsela Certifications

"I am so glad I decided to become a Newsela Certified Educator. The articles that align with books are my favorite. I use them to extend my reading lessons and broaden my students' perspective on issues."

"Using Newsela in my ELA classroom has allowed me to expand my own literary horizons and provide curated articles to my students on topics related to the fictional stories and novels that we are studying in class. Being a NCE has given me the confidence to develop text sets and create assignments that I can easily differentiate for my students."

"As a district coach who supports social studies teachers, it has been amazing to have the NCE background. I walked the walk of creating text sets and lessons focusing on literacy in social studies. This experience helped me to help teachers build lessons that are impactful for their students."

"The collaboration with the Fellows group was a great source of inspiration for me. Being a Fellow provided me with an excellent way to increase student and teacher engagement with Newsela in my school district."

"Previously, I just used the articles and quizzes, now I am able to do so much more. I can find more curated collections for my students and love learning how other teachers are using Newsela with their students."
