Description
The Reading History series is written specifically for history students who struggle with the high reading level and concept overload of history textbooks. Through short, concise readings that are well below grade-level, the series presents the information students need to be successful. A consistent format is used to allow students to understand the organizational structure of each lesson and of the unit. Charts, diagrams, and graphic organizers are incorporated to help make complex history concepts more accessible to students. Each lesson also scaffolds students by introducing an appropriate reading strategy for the text. The Teacher's Guide provides just the right amount of easy-to-use grade-level support materials. The Reading History series, Grade 7 set includes: • Teacher's Guide (1 copy); • Unit 1: New France (4 copies); • Unit 2: British North America (4 copies); and • Unit 3: Conflict and Change (4 copies). Note: Four copies of each unit (consumable student workbooks) and one teacher guide are included in the set.
