Firstly, there are sixteen reading comprehension activities, or informational texts, about:
These activities require NO PREP and have a body of text that students need to read through thoroughly; then they can use the text to find the comprehension and grammar answers. All texts then have an extension activity for those fast finishers. Answers, for teacher use, are on the final page of each document.
Then, there are two biography writing units about Winston Churchill and Adolf Hitler, and two informational writing units about an Overview of World War II and The Holocaust. The units have been split into three or four separate lessons which will take students approximately an hour each.
