One email to confirm it is you, then one a day.
The prompt changes overnight and there is nothing to pick from, so whatever is up this morning is what every other class opening the page gets, which means the room next door is arguing about the same thing yours is.
Each one starts from something that actually happened, with the source printed next to it so a student can go and check it, and there is nothing to sign up for or install, and the email is optional.
There are thirteen more sets on the site, free the same way: a year of Do Nows, summary writing, sentence starters, transition words, literary devices, and quote banks for Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Frankenstein, Jekyll and Hyde, A Christmas Carol and Gatsby.
Only the days already gone. Today is on the board and tomorrow arrives overnight.
A situation goes on the board with one question under it and hands go up, then a button makes the situation worse and the room votes again. Same timer, same shape as this page, new every school day.
Open today’s dilemmaLong Story Short gives you one real news sentence. You cut it down to five of its own words, and what is left has to still be the story. Two minutes, a new one every day, nothing to sign into. Same muscle as the writing above, worked from the other end.
