Student Book units of workopening spreadEach unit begins with a double page of source texts on a theme. Many texts come from Blake Education titles or other titles that are readily available, so it is easy to expand each topic with further reading.

activity pagesStudents explore the features of the source texts by completing six pages of focused activities. Students build visual literacy skills by engaging with the abundant pictures, captions, labels and tables, and by drawing their own pictures. Partner activities reinforce speaking and listening skills and boost student understanding.

In the texts—Students explore stand-out features of the source texts and common characteristics of their text types.

Read and learn—Comprehension activities include literal, inferential and critical comprehension strategies.

Your turn—Writing is part of every unit, with word lists, scaffolds and structures to help students master a variety of text types and writing styles. Activities include planning and drafting.

Grammar—Grammar, punctuation and usage activities are integrated into each unit with comprehensive coverage of grammar and usage skills. These activities use the unit’s source texts as examples.

My StuffThese pages are for students to express themselves and record responses to what they are learning. They encourage students to connect their personal interests—websites,songlyrics,games,films, magazines etc. — with their school-based learning.
