The resource is continually updated, providing a vast collection of nearly 2 million images, including photographs, maps, and flags, which enhance visual learning.
One notable aspect of Middle Search Plus is its use of Lexile levels, which indicate the reading difficulty of articles, helping educators align resources with the varying reading abilities of their students. This feature supports differentiated instruction and allows students to engage with materials suited to their individual learning styles and paces. As part of EBSCO, a leading provider of research resources, Middle Search Plus represents a significant tool for middle school educators and students aiming to enhance research skills and access quality content effectively.

Lexile Levels
All full-text articles in Middle Search databases are assigned reading level indicators (Lexiles) that provide educators with an estimate of the result’s reading difficulty and the approximate grade-level reading ability required for comprehension. Lexiles help teachers meet the needs of students with varying reading abilities and interests, support the incorporation of EBSCO resources into curricula suitable for different learning styles and abilities, and allow students to read along at their own pace.
