Getting our Year 9 students to read ...Hi Gerardo, <br /><br />Getting our Year 9 students to read books of that calibre would be like pulling teeth - in fact, I wish my year 11 Biology students were that motivated. I do have two suggestions for your fourth book though - "The Future Eaters" or "The Weather Makers" both by Tim Flannery. I also enjoyed Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything", which is a very easy to read account of the earth's history from the Big Bang to the rise of civilisation.Britt Gowhttp://brittgow.globalteacher.org.aunoreply@blogger.com
