Description:
This new three-book series takes a fresh approach to making reading both pleasurable and motivating! High-interest biographies focus on less-known facts about famous figures, rather than the chronology of events typical of most biographies.
Biographies: A Reading Series is available for beginning, low intermediate and intermediate readers. Each book takes a multicultural approach, featuring 24 short biographies on inspirational figures from all over the world.
Subjects range from historical and political figures to athletes, artists, entertainers, and humanitarians, including: -- Gandhi -- Eva Peron -- Muhammad Ali -- Billie Holiday -- Menelik II -- Thomas Edison
In addition to the biographical reading, each unit includes: -- Pre-reading questions and activities. -- Vocabulary exercises -- definition and usage. -- Main-idea exercises. -- Questions on detail and inference. -- Discussion and writing activities. -- Answers to exercises at the end of each book.
