Common Lit: Languages

Curated by ACT

CommonLit.org is a wonderful resource to use in a Language Arts classroom. Each text is accompanied by guided reading questions, assessment questions, and discussion questions. In addition, students can click on words to see the definitions, choose to have the text read aloud, and have chosen text translated. Read the poem "Languages" by Carl Sandburg which was published in Chicago Poems in 1916 alongside a collection of poems that pay tribute to the common man.
