Terracotta Warriors: IB DP English B Reading Comprehension (Paper 2 preparation)

Imagine a resource that not only allows students to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the Terracotta Warriors, but also promotes international-mindedness and develops reading comprehension skills while preparing students for English B HL Paper 2.

This resource does exactly that! Based on authentic texts, students will complete reading comprehension questions about the Terracotta Warriors.

Includes:

• 3 written extracts to read
• 32 reading comprehension questions
• A variety of questions: multiple choice, True/False justification, gap-filling and more!
• 2 BONUS reflection questions to identify themes and share opinion
• Detailed answer key

How it works:

Students read three texts about the Terracotta Warriors - how they were discovered, the archaeologist who identified them, and previous exhibitions.

They will then answer reading comprehension questions and have the opportunity to make connections to English B themes with two final reflection questions that develop critical thinking skills.

Benefits:

✅ Celebrate an important cultural anniversary

✅ This resource can be used as formative or summative assessment

✅ NO PREPARATION REQUIRED - just press print!

✅ Includes detailed answer key

✅ Promotes international mindedness

✅ Bonus questions develop reflection and critical thinking skills

✅ Excellent preparation for English B external assessment - same format, number of written texts and marks as Paper 2 Reading.
