ReadWriteThink

ReadWriteThink is a site that offers lessons and resources developed by the International Reading Association and The National Council of Teachers of English.  It provides educators and parents access to the highest quality practices in reading and language arts instruction by offering free materials. The site has an array of information such as standards-based lesson plans that meaningfully integrate internet content into teaching and/or learning experience.  This site can be beneficial to use with students who struggle with vocabulary, writing, or comprehension.  Students who are visually impaired can also benefit from using this site because books can be read a-loud and audio recordings are provided for tasks. 

The site is user-friendly and can be easily navigated with links such as lesson plans, resources, and student interactives. The site also provides information about professional development for educators.  Best of all, all the information on this site is FREE for educators, parents and professionals! 

This site is great for differentiating instruction and I would definitely consider utilizing this tool for classroom instruction. 

The next post will discuss an informative webinar to help students with reading difficulties.
