Disasters

This series of nonfiction readers will grab a pupils interest from the very first page. Designed with reluctant readers in mind, these riveting 64 page paperback books offer short chapters on significant disasters. Each chapter is its own mini book, which includes a time line, key terms and interesting facts. Fascinating black and white photographs keep the pages turning. A bibliography encourages further topical reading. The series is also supported by a comprehensive teacher resource providing: answers; suggested lesson format; ten photocopiable activity pages to support each nonfiction title; and activities which focus on giving lower level readers the tools to construct, extend and examine the meaning of text.
