Picture Stories : Language and Literacy Activities for Beginners Picture Stories : Language and Literacy Activities for Beginners is the perfect book for young adult and adult students with minimal literacy skills in English.
Each of the sixteen stories, told through a sequence of then
pictures, deals with a particular cultural topic such as using the
pelephone, on-the-job responsibilities, household safety, male/female
relationships, and shoping etiquette. The humor in the stories makes
them fun to "read" and encourages discussion.
Students will :
Talk about the pictures
Number the pictures in sequential order
Match the pictures with the printed word
Complete fill-in-the-blank activities
Write the story
*Detailed Teacher's Notes and an Answer Key are included at the back of the book.
Like all the Eyewitness books, the quantity of information in Castle is both its strong point and weak point. We are taken to castles through time as well as in different cultures, and both the architectural and sociological aspects are examined. However, many of the facts and pictures included on a given page seem rather random and do not fit into a coherent general presentation.
Castle is good fun if one remembers to read the main sections and the details when they're specifically interesting, but to just enjoy the pictures for some of the minutia.
