Parents need to know that this site, which supplements the TIME for Kids magazine, is a safe and wonderfully eye-opening place for kids to hang out online. Although there are versions of the TIME for Kids magazine for grade-schoolers, the site is more for tweens and up since articles give frank facts (while leaving out disturbing details) about things like political assassinations and social injustices.
"Newsela will publish Post articles at five reading levels for 2nd-12th grade readers, including the original version exactly as it appears in the print or online edition of The Washington Post. All articles from The Washington Post are available at https://newsela.com/~washingtonpost."
News presented in a kid-friendly format, TIME For Kids is a weekly classroom news magazine that motivates kids to read! Issues cover a wide range of real-world topics kids love to learn about - and it's the best nonfiction text you'll find!
