Your learners will develop their English skills as they explore non-fiction texts, discover nonsense poetry and write their own fables. You’ll find a wide range of international fiction, non-fiction, poetry and drama to help your learners develop their understanding of different genres and text types. Each unit includes activities that cover reading, writing, speaking and listening, as well as opportunities to develop 21st century skills – such as collaboration and critical thinking. Units end with a project, like creating an exhibition about World Environment Day, to help students communicate confidently and understand how to apply their learning to real-world scenarios.
