Good Day! Lately my students ask me more and more for Guardian and Observer newspaper articles, the problem is that they are not always easy to read and understand even for advanced learners. Could you, please, recommend me some Adapted Newspaper Texts webpages, to use in class the easier and more understandable version. Thank you!

Not sure where they get the articles from (i.e. which political perspective they take), but have a look at:

I have found http://www.newsademic.com/ which you have to pay for. It comes out fortnightly and has exercises with it. It is comprehensive and informative but like all newspapers you have to consider what the politicla perspective might be. Cheers Joy |
