The activities are perfect for students in Year 5 or Year 6.

Firstly, there are six reading comprehension activities, or informational texts, about:

• Albert Einstein
• Isaac Newton
• Marie Curie
• Galileo

• Charles Darwin

These activities require NO PREP and have a body of text that students need to read through thoroughly; then they can use the text to find the comprehension and grammar answers. All texts then have an extension activity for those fast finishers. Answers, for teacher use, are on the final page of each document.

Secondly, there are three biography writing units about Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton and Marie Curie. The units have been split into four separate lessons which will take students approximately 40-50 minutes each.
