As a special educator, I am constantly looking for sites that will meet the diverse needs of my students as well as the entire school. THIS IS THAT SITE!
This is finally a website where I can differentiate for my students while still giving them age-appropriate visuals.

The stories spark discussion and have an element of "fun".
Unlike video-only news for kids, News-O-Matic encourages the process of reading and reflection (and sharing) with families or peers.
