Non-fiction extracts

[Happy36]

Would anyone be so kind as to help me?

I have a bank of non-fiction extracts (all sorts of things like newspaper articles, interviews, speeches, letters, travel writing) for my students to read. I am looking to add to this bank and would be really grateful for your ideas - links to any extracts that are online would be particularly helpful, thank you.

The register of the extracts does not matter so please feel free to recommend less formal ones.

I may have some to send you when term begins. Could I be so cheeky as to ask for a copy of yours?

What age range are your students?

Yep. I can send you some when term re-starts. You might have to bump this to remind me!

Thanks very much, everyone. These students are 15 to 18. Ymamiss, I will send you mine.

Ooh, I'd be happy to swap gone quid pro quo! I'm writing the department scheme for this for next year and need all the texts I can get!

Ymamiss and YouSmellLikeDogBuns, I have sent you a few, as well as some helpful sites where I found others. I hope they're useful.

I am the OP, Happy36, by the way: had password problems since the MN hack the other day so had to create a different login. (Apologies for any confusion).
