Can I turn an article or website into a lesson?

Chalkie uses a readable web page, such as a Wikipedia article, to create lesson slides and a matching worksheet. Paste the page URL, choose your grade and language, then click Create. Review the source and generated content for accuracy and suitability before using it with students.
