"The first level of this two-level writing text draws on students' world knowledge, beliefs, and perceptions to teach organization and other aspects of the writing process. Every unit in the Student's Book contains brainstorming activities, analysis of models, activities focusing on organization, and pre-writing, writing, and post-writing activities. This book is designed to be suitable for large as well as small classes. It has 12 units with self-contained one- or two-page lessons, as well as self-contained activities that do not require completion of all previous ones - an advantage in a class where students attend irregularly. There are activities to elicit both oral and written feedback from peers, and optional real-world expansion activities, giving learners the opportunity to communicate with English speakers outside of class."--PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION.
