Like the other workbooks in this series, chunks of easy-to-follow informational text are full of fascinating, important facts that will intrigue high school students. Interspersed throughout the text are numerous questions and activities, ranging from basic recall, to critical thinking, to activities and puzzles. Our student workbooks provide learners the opportunity to learn independently. Parents or teachers introduce the topic, then give students the workbook to read and complete. After the workbook has been completed, students have acquired the necessary comprehensive content knowledge to competently discuss the topic with educators and others, and will be motivated to branch their study of the topic into other related lines of inquiry. Works great as a stand-alone item or as a supplement to a larger unit. Many educators have simultaneously praised our workbook formatting as ideal for use by struggling readers who have trouble with reading comprehension, and for use by younger gifted students in need of supplemental intellectual stimulation.
