In my opinion, Heroes of the Revolution is a nice book for children and adults to read together. It contains one-page snippets from the lives of twelve patriots of the Revolutionary War, highlighting the events, quotes and achievements that they are most well-known for. What I liked about the book was that it features both men and women, as well as the very famous such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson alongside lesser-known, but no less important figures such as Lydia Darragh and Haym Salomon. In this way I thought that the book taught a lesson about the smaller contributions to a great cause being just as important as bigger ones. The only thing I might have changed would be making the snippets a little longer, but in spite of their brevity, I was still able to learn a few new things as well as having my memory refreshed on things that I already knew. It would also be great for kids with short attention spans. In spite of it's abreviated nature, some of the vocabulary would probably be rather challenging for younger readers, but would be great for slightly older readers around 7-10 years or for read-aloud with a parent. ( ) Cheesy, short synopses about several Revolutionary War "heroes." I use it during our My Brother Sam is Dead unit to stir up controversy. I read the short description of Crispus Attuck's acts and ask the kids to respond in writing, "Was he a HERO?" They are always divided, but the piece has just the right amount of details to support both opinions. I have a lot of fun with this, and no other text has been quite as perfect for this task. LOW reading level. This book is appropriate for elementary and middle school. The book is brief biographies of 12 revolutionary figures and their contributions in the war. I would use this in an elementary class room as an example of how to write a biography. For a middle school class, in preparation of writing their own biography, I would use this as a preliminary biography to give students some ideas of an historical figure to research. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
