Adventures:
True Stories from America's Past
1770 to 1870
by Morrie Greenberg
This 8½ x 11 size softcover book contains 15 high-interest stories from
America's history that are not widely known. They are designed to appeal to
those who can't seem to get into the regular texts provided in most secondary
history courses. Each short story is preceded by a time line to put it into the
correct historical context, and a paragraph to describe what else was happening
during the period in which the story takes place. (This is in a box to make it
easy to find.) After each story are some suggested writing/journal activities,
some vocabulary or comprehension activities, some discussion activities, and
some related group activities. Each story also has a black and white
illustration.
For ages 9 and up (or read it aloud to
younger students).
