News in Levels is designed for English Language Learners (ELLs) and ELL instructors. Created by a Czech company with the same name, the philosophy behind News in Levels is simple: each day, the website features a news story or two in three different "levels." Level 1 news stories use the 1,000 most common English words; Level 2 news stories use the 2,000 most common words; and Level 3 stories use the 3,000 most common words. News stories are accompanied by audio recordings and key vocabulary words are bolded. Students can switch between levels while reading each news story, enabling them to start with more challenging texts and switch when needed. Each news story is also accompanied by a glossary and questions to facilitate a writing or speaking exercise.
