Use content you create for reading activities or discussions. This is especially handy when working with lower level students where you may want to use authentic materials, but have a difficult time finding materials at the appropriate level. You can even turn to your local paper for inspiration and rewrite stories at a suitable level for your students. With higher level students, use authentic materials from a local paper to introduce a specific type of piece—for example, a letter to the editor—and then share the site with students for writing practice and ask them to generate similar pieces or short stories of their own. Just make sure it is newsworthy!
