Overview
The Endurance Series Workbook takes a deep dive into the award-winning graphic novel series, Endurance: Book One, The Frozen Keep, and Book Two, The Beckoning Shore. These graphic novels chronicle one of the most famous polar explorations of all time...the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. Frustrated to lose the coveted prize of becoming the first explorer to plant his country's flag on the South Pole, British explorer Ernest Shackleton created a risky plan to cross the continent of Antarctica with sleds and dogs-a trek of more than 1,800 miles. The Endurance Series Workbook examines the attitudes and skills a member of an Antarctic expedition would need to survive: common sense, logic, map reading, decision making, and problem solving. It looks into the actual journal of Shackleton as he documented the Endurance's fateful voyage. This self-paced workbook is an effective unit study to supplement your education. It combines the fun of reading through an exciting graphic novel series, with the comprehensive breadth of knowledge gained by going through this companion workbook. Grow your understanding of history and science through he graphic novel series Endurance: Book One, The Frozen Keep, and Book Two, The Beckoning Shore! The workbook aligns with specific high school level, Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) standards in both Mathematics and English Language Arts/Literacy (ELA/Literacy), as well as incorporating elements from the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

Author Information
Born in the Midwestern United States, Terrill moved with his family to the smog and hustle of Los Angeles when he was 12. In his teen years, Terrill became immersed into the Southern California surfing subculture. Over time, he went on surf adventures in California, to Mexico and Hawaii. In college, a biology major took a right turn, transforming into a lifelong career in art and design. Terrill's passion is narratives-creating story through writing, art, and illustration. He currently lives in Carlsbad, California. Adelé has edited dozens of science textbooks, education guides, and memoirs. She lives in the Upstate of South Carolina with her husband, her yappy chiweenie, and her too-large collection of books and houseplants.
