Description

Overview: Students will learn about the different beliefs ancient civilizations had about solar eclipses. They will use compare-and-contrast language sentence frames when differentiating them. They will also learn academic vocabulary in context (reading and video-read & hear/listen). Students will apply this skill again when conducting independent research and creating a presentation with the information they collected. There is also a word search (and key) at the end for extra fun.

Skills:

This resource is ready to go--no prep. The materials in this set cover these skills: spelling, inferencing, writing with sentence frames, vocabulary, reading and listening with a comprehension check, comparing and contrasting, and pulling information from texts to create an independent research presentation.
