Newsela offers a significant proportion of articles in Spanish, as well as in English. Each Spanish language article is offered at 5 levels, and contains a quiz for each level in Spanish. Articles also contain a Spanish-language write prompt.
We publish some daily news in Spanish, but are focusing on adapting our frequently used Library content, based on teacher request.
