Connect is a fun, 4-level, multi-skills
American English course especially written and designed for young
adolescents. Motivation is encouraged through high-interest topics
and lively activities. These activities and Theme Projects help
students connect their English to the world outside the classroom.
Student's Book
Each Student's Book contains 8 units divided into 2-page lessons.
Each unit is accompanied by full-color photographs and
illustrations. Also included are Learning Logs which give students
an opportunity to reflect on their progress, and Theme Projects
which enable students to use the unit language in a new and
meaningful way.
Workbook
The Workbook provides additional reading and writing reinforcement
of the grammar and vocabulary for each lesson. Also featured is a
Check Yourself section at the back of the book, enabling students to
assess their own performance. The Workbook can be used at home or in
class.
Teacher's Edition
The comprehensive interleaved Teacher's Edition provides
step-by-step instructions to present, practice and review the
language and skills in each lesson. Also included are audio scripts
of all recorded material, suggestions for optional exercises and
linguistic, methodological and cultural notes where appropriate. The
host of support materials includes a testing program and worksheets
for additional practice.
Audio program
The Class Audio Cassettes and CDs include recordings of the
Vocabulary, Language Focus, Listening and Reading exercises. A
unique feature of the Connect audio program is the recordings for
'Listen and check your answers' in many of the Language Focus
practice activities. This feature reduces teacher talking time and
encourages greater student involvement in the process of checking
answers. The recordings are in natural, conversational American
English.
Connect Arcade
This interactive website offers students self-study grammar,
listening, and vocabulary activities. For every unit, quizzes and
games use animation, audio, and/or illustrations to turn English
practice into online fun. |
