This website deserves a 1 out of 5 stars. Many teacher (including my own) either do not know how to teach their students or are too lazy to do so despite having high college degrees in English. They rely on this website, CommonLit, to "teach" their students, but this website proves to do the exact opposite. Getting just one answer wrong proves to bring one's score down tremendously. Even after getting a question wrong and the assignment is graded, the website does not allow to show the write answer, and does not care to explain why it is right. Tell me, how do you teach a child if they don't know why what they chose was wrong? They will just continue to live not knowing why their answer was wrong, and possibly make the same mistake in the future. This website does not teach children what so ever, and I do not advise it for teachers to use. If you are an English teacher, please attempt to teach your class something useful rather than being lazy and assigning a garbage website to "teach" children. Thank you.
