A celebration of British Fruit - Medlars

Continuing with the theme “A celebration of British fruit”, this reading comprehension resource is about the delightful medlar fruit. At Levels 1 and 2 there are additional punctuation and grammar questions, spelling, and fact and opinion. There is also a speaking and listening group discussion/ presentation task. At Entry 3 there is a revised text with questions and discussion ideas. The final text is simplified for Entry 1 and 2 with some appropriate questions.

Editor's notes

Until reading this, I knew nothing about the mysterious fruit! The three differentiated texts were written for ESOL but many tasks are also suitable for Functional Skills English. Would be of particular interest to gardeners and cooks.
