Effective Literacy Website on English for Everyone

The fifth website for Effective Reading Project that I will be reviewing is English for Everyone. The website or url can be found here (https://www.englishforeveryone.org/). English for Everyone is designed basically on reading comprehension, parts of speech, spelling, matching, vocabulary, synonyms, and etc. On this website it contains a complete list of high quality reading comprehension worksheets created specifically by English for Everyone team mainly for students in grade levels K-12. The worksheets elicit the use of critical thinking skills at every level.  

As I came across the website, I found it very useful for every grade starting from Grade school (K-12), General Educational Development (GED), English as a Second Language (ESL), and all interested in advancing their knowledge of the English language. Moreover, the team of English for Everyone offers a large variety of accurate and concise skill building resources geared towards a range of ability levels. Their aims and hopes are that all ages could find their resources visually appealing, straightforward, easy to locate, and able to capture the essence of the English language.

Furthermore, questions that been provided on the website basically asks the reader to examine the passage for particular details. Most questions involve the use of deductive reasoning, conclusion making, logical inference, sequential analysis, tonal awareness, and an understanding of scope. The website's plain display and straightforward navigation structure make it easy for first time users and novice English speakers to understand.

 In conclusion, the website is set up to be as helpful to students as possible, teachers and parents may find it especially so. All ages will benefit from this website due to these materials are applicable for students of all ages and ability levels. Their materials are highly effective in supplementing the education of verbal reasoning and critical thinking skills.  This is a free website to access. At the same time, everything here as well as these resources is free to obtain and use.
