Following the post below on the nation of Colombia, here is a Cultural Literacy worksheet on Christopher Columbus, the country’s namesake. This is a full-page worksheet with a reading of four sentences and five comprehension question. You might want to take a look at the first and last sentences, which are long, heavily punctuated compounds. If you students are up to it, I would leave them be. But the lists, with all their clauses, might be a bit too much for emergent or struggling readers.
If you find typos in this document, 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.
