Description

Introduce a lesson on the history of technology with this eBook that goes over the life of Benjamin Banneker, who was self-taught in the study of astronomy and wrote almanacs. eBooks are a great for a warm up activity in the computer lab or classroom. Share the PDF with students for a paperless experience or print the nonfiction text out as a booklet.

In the file you’ll find:

  1.  Instructions for printing – if you want physical copies of the eBooks
  2.  Comprehension questions (2 to a page and full-page options)
  3.  Vocabulary for this eBook
  4.  Higher order thinking questions to ask after reading
  5.  3 graphic organizers that can be used with the text (provided in PDF for printing and as PNG files that can be loaded into Seesaw or Google Slides for students to type their answers)
  6. 2 Levels of the PDF eBook. Level 1 is meant to be simpler to understand for primary students and level 2 includes more details and higher level vocabulary for upper elementary or middle school students.

The PDF is designed to be used like an eBook, so you can project it onto your whiteboard and/or share it as a PDF in your learning management system for students to read through independently. The level 1 version should probably be read aloud to primary students due to the technical terminology.
