What others say

"This resource is very high-level. I used it with my ESL students and for them it was too difficult. For native speakers it would be great. Yet, I used the text itself, which was engaging, and just let them outline 4 positive effects of dirt-bike riding."

I used this for a specific student who has a lower reading level but high interest in dirt bike riding. She loved it!
