Quickly Create Literacy Lesson From Any Article


LessonWriter.com is an awesome tool that allows you to quickly create the following activities for any article or story:
  • graphic organizers
  • vocabulary dictionaries and questions
  • grammar examples and questions
  • comprehension questions
LessonWriter essentially creates a worksheet, which many teachers don't appreciate because worksheets are not usually rigorous. However, I think that LessonWriter might be a good activity for your students to create assignments based on articles they read. This tool can be effective not only in Literature/Composition classrooms, but also in any classroom that reads texts from the web. Try it out and tell me what you think!

  1. Thanks for noticing LessonWriter and I really appreciate your kind words and enthusiastic endorsement.
    One important feature was overlooked: LessonWriter is free for teachers!
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvement.
    Thanks
