Would you believe ...? * A woman gets a phone call, but it is the
wrong number. How does this call save her life? * A man parks near
a No Parking sign and gets a ticket. Every day he goes back to the
No Parking sign and parks there, and every day he gets a ticket.
Why does he keep going back? * A woman is driving on a highway at
100 mph, and she cannot slow down. What does she do? More very
low-level yet high-interest stories These stories, selected from
mainstream news sources, are humorous, poignant, astounding -- and
all true They are told as simply as possible -- exclusively in the
present tense -- and all stories are less than 1/2 page long. All
New Very Easy True Stories, by Sandra Heyer, is an ideal first text
for students with little experience with English. It is a companion
book to Very Easy True Stories, which is at the same level but
features different stories and exercises. These two parallel
readers give students the option of lingering at the low-beginning
level. They can go back and forth between Very Easy True Stories
and All New Very Easy True Stories, or they can complete first one
book and then the other.Or teachers can use Very Easy True Stories
one semester and All New Very Easy True Stories the next. That way,
students who stay in a low-beginning class when their classmates
move on to the next level can essentially repeat the class but with
all new material. Combined, the two books offer 28 stories, giving
teachers multiple opportunities to incorporate reading into their
thematically-based instructional units. Features * First, students
see a series of 18 captioned pictures that clarify the meaning of
the sentences beneath the pictures. * Next, students read the story
in text form for real reading practice. * Finally, students
complete exercises following each story to develop basic reading
skills as well as build pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary
proficiency. The True Stories series includes: True Stories Behind
the Songs More True Stories Behind the Songs Very Easy True Stories
