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

• An Overview of the Carthaginian Empire
• Advancements of the Inca Empire
• The Punic Wars
• Hannibal Barca
• The Fall of the Carthaginian Empire

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, a crossword and a wordsearch for those fast finishers. Answers, for teacher use, are on the final page of each document. Each also comes with a teacher presentation to introduce the topic.
