joy days,
Better then any reading app!!!
This is a GREAT app. We learn from things that I, a kid doesn’t know. Furthermore, we might learn from the corona and every else to be exact! There is lots and plz write more of these amazing articles. And stay safe!!! Also, this is awesome because there is so many cool articles and some were so funny that my tears came out like crazy! Whoever made this app was amazing. The updates are more better. We get more articles and everything the teacher gave us were so much better. By the way, there is no fiction and that is great. I was feeling like I was going to burst out with joy when I discovered that no fiction was hear and I used this app almost all the time! Plz add in more updates and whoever made this app, this app was totally awesome and interesting and amazing and beautiful and funny!
Arashi_Ann,
Good for the teacher, not so much for the student
For all the years I have been using this App, something stays the same whether I was in Middle School or High School; the app works for the teacher. Albeit, it is lovely to read an academic perspective about the world in general -the writing portion is the easiest (ironically)- I am troubled with the quizzes. Recently, many teachers are using this app to simplify their grading, and somehow when you get 3/4 you still get a C as a grade, which does not make sense considering you only got one question wrong.
I hear all the time fellow classmates complaining about Newsela because of this system, it indirectly ruins a student’a grade. In my opinion, there should be either more questions or rounded it up to level the ground for students, since in a normal exam even getting an amount of questions wrong can get you a B, yet somehow Newsela works by passing or failing. No room for diversity in grades. Adding more questions would be a good update to move past from this fail-pass system. Otherwise, the app works greatly and will have to, most likely, continue using it because of my teachers.

person with rating,
So great for reading articles
I am a student and I absolutely love this app. The articles are very good, and I love how there are quizzes and articles in Spanish. I need to write four science articles a week, and I can just go the to science section and start reading. My teacher can assign me articles to read, so when we have a project I know what to read. There are different reading levels, so if you are not advanced you can go lower, but if you are an advanced reader you can read at a higher level! This is such a great source for info, and if you are a teacher definitely use this app for your students. They will definitely enjoy it!

Great site, lame app
This is an awesome website that I use quite often with my students. However, the transition from webpage to app is underwhelming. Our school is in a low income area and many students do not have a computer at home, making the phone app version vital to them. Especially now during the quarantine when school is expected to continue while many students don’t have devices. We use Microsoft for our accounts, and while the option to sign in with Microsoft on the webpage works seamlessly with our accounts, the lack of this option on the app makes it pretty difficult to get students online. They are not allowed to use their personal emails to join our class but they can’t sign in with Microsoft unless they’re on a computer. This should be a relatively easy fix and would make a huge difference for many students like mine

Articles are excellent! Students are thinking thoughts about other things beside rap, drugs, and sex. They are using their minds for a better society; therefore, caring for themselves and their families. Students have a right and a desire to be heard, because they are the future.
I see the students who I taught how to read Shakespeare, Thoreau, Wordsworth, Hardy, John Donne, Shelley, T.S. Eliot...
And hear their speeches...their platforms, and it makes me so proud that these early readings have fostered in them the desire and courage that they, too, can be effective leaders of good of our society.
Students need a forum to begin venues where their thoughts can be formed...and led the greater good for others.

An amazing source of reading for students
I’m quite convinced with having this app on my mobile! The most distinctive feature that distinguishes this app from the other apps related to the same field is that readers can adjust the articles with their language levels and understand the contents better, also, improve their reading skill with a higher level! Taking quizzes is also another helpful feature that allow you to assess your comprehensive skill. Keep going guys with progressing this app through this technological age. I appreciate your wonderful work.
Wessa Nessa,
Very good app for reading but...
Newsela in general is an amazing website and app for education. I personally love it on the website but I decided to download the app because of a problem. (It does not deal with Newsela) As I was doing a writing prompt, I would accidentally hit the “Done” button and then it would submit it when I wasn’t finished. I decided that I would just change the reading level and start again but the same thing happened. A suggestion would be if you can edit you prompt if you didn’t finish it and a erase button for any work you did in another reading level. Also can you explain what the reading level does? Overall I absolutely love Newsela!
Jeff Bewinski,
Great App, Small Problems
I love this app. It’s a great app for kids to use to read the news. You can take quizzes and answer written questions. I only have one problem, every once in a while I will open the app and it says “Oops, We hit a snag! Please sign in again!” then the app freezes. I exit the app and go back in. I click sign in and then click Google. I sign in with my account and it starts to load. Then it glitches out and goes back to the sign in and sign up page. I have to re download the app and sign in. Otherwise, it’s a great app! 😀
fksdfhi,
all my work keeps getting deleted
I use this app for many of my school assignments, and the first few times I was completing the writing portion, I thought that I had forgotten to click the save button so all my work deleted. I recently had to pause during the middle of an assignment, and as a result, all my work was deleted even though I pressed save. This is extremely annoying considering the response I had written was very long and almost finished.
To the developers of this app: please look into changing the location of the “save” button as my keyboard covers it. In addition, I think it would be very helpful if you could make the responses auto save so in the event that someone does have to quickly exit the app, all their work is still saved.

bhsysbdjkc dhend,
This app is boring
As a student that likes to learn and read about the world this app doesn’t do a very good job. The quizzes are useless and the write is painful. The app always puts me on a lower reading level and I would like a challenge. I have been forced to use this app for three years and it has not increased my reading or English or vocabulary at all. Either that or teachers need to give kids some freedom on what the kid reads. Newsela counts on half of my English grade and that is why me and everyone is failing English. To me it creates stress and anxiety. I would also like to add that this does everything for the teacher, the teacher doesn’t do any work and I think I would learn better if the teacher teached it. Now when I come for extra help they don’t know what to do. I don’t get why people like it.
