About this title

Synopsis

Accelerated Reader is a program based on the fact that students become more motivated to read if they are tested on the content of the books they have read and are rewarded for correct answers. Students read each book, individually take the test on the computer, and receive gratification when they score well. Schools using the Accelerated Reader program have seen a significant increase in reading among their students.

Fifty-six newly released titles that provide a fascinating portrait of the many peoples that inhabit Africa. These books have natural curriculum tie-ins with multiculturalism, geography, and social studies.

Reviews

Gr 7 Up--These titles provide a brief historical survey of the respective country (i.e., Ghana and Lesotho) from ancient times to the present, as well as basic information on the geography, social life and customs, religion, education, and the arts. Maps showing population distribution and district boundaries are included. Close to two dozen full-color and black-and-white photographs complement each text. Boxed inserts provide additional background on various topics, such as proverbs, prayer, famous leaders, shrine houses, etc. As little information is available on the traditional and modern lives of specific African groups, these titles are valuable resources.
