Both readings begin with to situations one presents the problem of accessing to a sufficient range of simple literature in English in a form interest and language ability levels for children and young learners; on the other hand, the second article explores the issue of the use of internet as teaching aid while teaching students during writing genres. 
Something I learned from the first  article and that every teacher should know was that extensive reading using the variety of literature available on the internet can improve vocabulary, grammar, writing, reading and comprehension. In my classes What surprised me in this article was the scales presented by the author ¨Student should know at least 99- 95% a  of the vocabulary for mastery levels in L1 reading of English.

The second article in addition to explore the issues of the internet when teaching writing, propose how to use internet by some techniques for writing genres such as notice and an advertisement, a description of a festivalor ceremony, a description of a book film or play, a newspaper report, anopinion essay and a description of a place.
