The Hour of the Olympics (#16)

Use this Pocket of Time and Magic Tree House Book 16 The Hour of the Olympics to kick off the 2008 Summer Olympics. Mary Pope Osborne provides a wonderful learning tool when she has Jack and Annie make a visit to Greece. Fortunately For You Books provides a supplement to this book with a hands on reading comprehension tool. Not using regular tests that can bore or confuse children, our Pockets of Time use a hands-on, color coded approach to quickly access the child's memory of events. Pockets of Time are great for children who are beginning to read alone and still need accountability to be sure they understand what they read. Pockets of Time can also be used for children who are being read aloud to or with learning disabilities. Use the event flashcards to help the child focus on key events in the story. As you use the Magic Tree House book about the Olympics (NOT included) and our sequential activity, you combine history, reading, and comprehension altogether.
