Prime-time comprehension is a series of three books for ages 5-7, 8-10 and 11+. There are 20 original texts: five fiction; five comic strips; five nonfiction; and five poems. The texts within each genre are sequenced in order of difficulty. Each four-page unit includes: the appropriately illustrated text, a page with five literal and five inferential-type questions, one with five evaluative-type questions and one with an activity to expand on the text topic.
Science Illustrated is an upbeat, visually spectacular gateway to cutting-edge science, which covers a tremendous range of subjects: from paleontology to space exploration, and medical breakthroughs to the latest environmental insights. Science Illustrated aims to report on the world of science in a way that’s dynamic, engaging and accessible for all.
Am using this to refresh my high school Physics and Chemistry (that was over twenty years ago now!). I was worried this book may be a little on the basic side, but so far is proving great, getting me back to a level where I don't mind Googling for more advanced information.
The diagrams are really helpful and makes it less of a dry read.
