What was it like to grow up in Ancient Greece? Let’s follow Niko and find out!
This Peann Jan reading comprehension pack invites learners to experience a day in the life of a young child in Ancient Athens. With three carefully levelled texts (Starter, Standard, Stretch) adapted in reading complexity to meet a wide range of learner needs, pupils build confidence as they progress from early reading skills like retrieval and sequencing to higher-level thinking tasks including vocabulary reasoning, inference, and author’s intent.
Across all three levels, children follow Niko through his morning routine, his lessons in reading, maths, and music, his chores at home, a lively visit to the market, and a cosy evening filled with family and storytelling.
What’s included:
- Three black-and-white reading texts (Starter, Standard, Stretch)
- Matching question sets designed to support skill progression
- Answer keys with clear skill tags
- Built-in traffic light self-assessment system with child-friendly icons
Take your class back in time with this engaging, history-inspired comprehension resource!
