Can you imagine life before the internet, telephones, or the wheel? Great inventions can change the world! Ladybird Readers is a graded reading series of traditional tales, popular characters, modern stories, and non-fiction, written for young learners of English as a foreign or second language. Beautifully illustrated and carefully written, the series combines the best of Ladybird content with the structured language progression that will help children develop their reading, writing, speaking, listening and critical thinking skills. Great Inventions is a Level 6 Reader. The longer text is made up of sentences with up to four clauses, more complex past and future tense structures, passives and time clauses.
Because you can't practice reading too much! Here is a fun little set of readers for the beginner. The topics are fascinating and include character stories and traditional tales. There is even an element of a first reference book here! Vibrantly colored illustrations and graphics keep the reader's attention. Picture glossary in the back grows vocabulary and a simple index teaches kids how to find information. Five questions can be asked by the parent/teacher to check reading comprehension. Having a variety of practice readers at this age builds confidence and fluency. On a scale of 5 levels of difficulty (0-4), this set is level 3. ~Sara
