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

• Albert Einstein
• Marie Curie
• Charles Darwin
• Isaac Newton
• Benjamin Franklin
• Galileo
• Stephen Hawking
• Nikola Tesla

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.

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

Good luck, I hope you find the resource useful!
