Description

An innovative three-level writing course for young learners.

Key features

  • Practice activities encourage accuracy and creativity.
  • As their confidence increases, learners progress from the production of sentences to paragraphs through more challenging text types.
  • Self-assessment tasks in the 'Review Your Writing' sections and a Student Record Sheet encourage students to review their work and to think about how they can improve their writing.
