Can a city have skyscrapers and safari animals? Welcome to Nairobi, a city full of contrast, culture, and curiosity!
From wildlife watching to vibrant street life, this reading pack explores Kenya’s capital city through three carefully levelled texts. Early readers begin by retrieving facts, spotting key ideas, and sequencing events. As confidence grows, pupils move on to explore vocabulary in context, make inferences, and consider why the writer included certain details.
Across all levels, learners discover that Nairobi is the capital of Kenya and sits in East Africa. They learn that Swahili and English are widely spoken, that Nairobi National Park is home to giraffes and lions, and that the Kenyatta International Conference Centre is a famous city landmark. They explore the foods ugali and nyama choma, understand the climate, and learn why people across Kenya celebrate Jamhuri Day.
What’s included:
- 3 black-and-white reading texts at increasing challenge
- Matching comprehension questions with varied reading skills
- Full answer key with skill tags for quick marking
- Traffic light self-assessment to support pupil reflection
Perfect for global reading adventures, culture-rich classrooms, or a safari through comprehension skills!
