Newsela is an education technology startup dedicated to transforming the way learners access the world through words. The founding team members combine powerful technological know-how with real-world experience earned in the classroom, the newsroom, and the boardroom. Launched in June 2013, Newsela publishes high-interest news articles daily at five levels of complexity for grades 2-12 using Newsela's proprietary, rapid text-leveling process. Common Core-aligned quizzes attached to articles give educators and parents insight into their students' reading strengths and weaknesses. Newsela develops nonfiction fluency and critical-thinking skills necessary to master the Common Core standards for informational text.

"The work of a writing instructor never ends. Grmr.me can cut down on that work and improve student learning by providing instruction on common writing errors rather than simple correction. "

"More than a quarter million videos and games, all Common Core aligned."
