Students using "Grammar Clear and Simple": are challenged but not overwhelmed; gain insights into English grammar without lengthy explanations; and internalize structures through meaningful practice.Here, vocabulary is explicitly taught through pictures and contextualized exercises. Listening passages allow students to integrate grammar as they locate and fill in missing words. Grammar exercises require students to demonstrate comprehension. With a partner, activities offer meaningful practice in real-world settings. Back of the Book notes to the teacher expand the teaching/learning potential of the text. Graphic organizers stimulate higher-order thinking skills, and activities help prepare students for standardized texts.
