This versatile resource is suitable for students of all ages, who require support and help in improving their literacy skills. This set of short stories on adult-oriented topics (illustrated with photographs) encourages learning by using simple, repetitious words in short sentences that gradually increase in length and difficulty.
The comprehension activities that accompany each story use a number of questioning strategies, including literal, inferential and evaluative.

The purpose of this material is to engage reluctant readers in adult-oriented topics. This title will be of interest to teachers in primary and secondary schools and will also be of interest to adult education teachers ( eg teachers of Functional/ core/ Essential skills Wales skills in communication).
