Here is a reading on the Lumiere Brothers with the vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet that accompanies it.
The Lumieres, as you may know, are pioneers of filmmaking technology and cinema. At my current posting I serve a couple of students highly interested in photography; yesterday I developed a series of research worksheets for learning about still photographers. In other words, there is more material related to photography forthcoming and Mark’s Text Terminal.
If you find typos in these documents, I would appreciate a notification. And, as always, if you find this material useful in your practice, I would be grateful to hear what you think of it. I seek your peer review.
