The Reading History resource is written specifically for students who struggle with the high reading level and concept overload of history textbooks. Through short, concise readings that are well below grade-level, the series presents the information students need to be successful. A consistent format is used to help students understand the organizational structure of the unit and of each lesson. Charts, diagrams, and graphic organizers are incorporated to help make complex history concepts more accessible to students. Grade 8.
