What This Teaches Best

• Reading for information inside a narrative (dates and customs for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Children’s Day; health terms and “healthy lifestyle” rules explained in dialogue).

• Skill practice with support pages (mixed questions, vocabulary tasks, sequencing, and short writes; QA note: some “Secret Trails” words don’t appear in the “Healthier Lifestyle” story text).
