Articles vary from bite-sized, fact-based articles to much longer, complex texts, so it is very easy to provide differentiation. This differentiation really helps with children with English as an additional language and others with a lower standard of reading than their peers. Rockerbox News is also very effective with mainstream pupils – especially those that enjoy reading.
