NoRedInk
NoRedInk was created to help students improve their skills with engaging material — and to allow their teacher to track their progress over time. It can help free up the teacher to focus on big-picture concepts in student writing that needs the teacher's attention. Now supported by a team of expert teachers, engineers, and language experts, NoRedInk's mission is to help all students harness the power of language. I hope the site is useful to you, your colleagues, and your students.

Email from CEO/Founder of NoRedInk:
In times of crisis, the world asks a tremendous amount of our teachers. You're likely juggling all kinds of difficult questions from students and parents, preparing for your school to close, or figuring out how to handle school already being closed with very little notice. Despite your own worries amid all the uncertainty, you're doing everything you can to support the students and families looking to you for direction and guidance.
NoRedInk is dedicated to supporting you as you navigate how to teach effectively during this unpredictable and important time. We’ve always provided free access to a portion of NoRedInk, and we’re expanding our free offering today in light of COVID-19. Here's what you can count on from us — regardless of whether your school is open or closed — for the rest of the school year:
Hundreds of free practice topics that allow your students to work independently toward mastery on a host of important writing, language, and critical thinking skills.
Effective today, free access to our entire Premium Guided Drafts suite, which scaffolds the writing process for students as they craft their essays. All rubric items are fully customizable, and you can assign writing across a wide variety of genres.
Free access to NoRedInk's Quick Writes, a lightweight, low-friction way to get students writing regularly across the curriculum.
Effective Wednesday, free access to NoRedInk’s Premium progress tracking, allowing you to assign curriculum and track student growth by state and national standards.
We've also created this guide to using NoRedInk during school closures to help you ensure that your students continue improving their writing skills while learning remotely.
When turbulence strikes, a teacher’s role as a critical pillar in our community becomes even more essential. As a long-time English teacher myself, I'm committed to ensuring that you're supported as you help students stay focused, curious, and optimistic this school year.
With gratitude,
-Jeff
