About
the
Series As
readers grow in skill and ability, they are able to learn more about the world
in which they live at the same time as they hone the basic reading skills
learned at the emergent and early reading levels. Fluent readers will learn
about the atmosphere, land, oceans, and other aspects of life on Earth and why
they matter so deeply to those who live on this planet. Designed to challenge,
the bilingual text is more detailed and less tied to image than the first two
levels of Bookworms. It also features longer words, abstract concepts, and some
scientific vocabulary. Readers of
Earth
Matters/El planeta es importante
will
learn much about the world in which they live as well
as expand
their reading comprehension skills.
