Voice of America has had its excellent Special English section for a while now, offering accessible news stories for learners of English. They've now added a new feature: The Classroom.
Here you will find Articles and Activities at 3 different skill levels, as well as an Idiom Dictionary and a Wordbook.
VERDICT
A very attractive site, which makes good use of Flash animation and sound. In fact, I'm so impressed that I'm adding it to my list of Top ELL Sites (see sidebar on left). The only quibble I have is that all the articles (including Advanced level ones) are read in that slow VOA speak, which can be a bit off-putting.
