🧭 Explorers: The Guild Chronicle

A fully interactive A2.2 Kids reading lesson that continues the Explorer Club into Master Level. Learners warm up with four questions about chronicles and time order, then study a reading toolkit in two blocks: What is a Chronicle? (events told in time order with the signal words first, then, after that, in winter, now, next month, and a reminder that a chronicle mixes past, present and future) and Two Kinds of Question (a clear contrast between literal answers written in the text and inference answers you reach by thinking — the class habit 'How do you know?'). Ten key words (chronicle, guild, master, skill, quest, scroll, record, event, ceremony, achievement) appear in a scrollable table with kid-friendly definitions and examples, and six get review flashcards. The reading is a magazine-style Guild Chronicle of about 120 words telling one year of Team Compass in order, with past events, present truths and a future quest, and key vocabulary highlighted on hover. Practice includes 8 contextualised fill-in-the-blank questions (vocabulary plus recycled past verbs and future will) with live green/red validation, hints and a running score; a speaking section with five prompts and a five-line guild dialogue; a guided 30-50 word mini-chronicle writing task with a four-point checklist and live word counter with auto-save; and a full 8-question multiple-choice quiz mixing reading strategy (literal vs inference, time order) with two comprehension questions about the chronicle, featuring a progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle and localStorage persistence.
