Bestseller Cloze The Gap: Exercises in Integrating and Developing Language Skills by Valerie Whiteson Category: Secondary Education
|
|
| Missing something? Cloze the Gap in your classroom with this exciting book! It features 20 reading passages on fascinating subjects addressing cultural issues, the value of happiness and success, family, community, and education. All the passages are authentic articles from magazines, newspapers, and advertisements published throughout the English speaking world, offering a diverse sample of writing. There are even light and lively sections from traveling through Disneyland to reading your horoscope and telling jokes. Each passage is uniquely presented in the cloze procedure–meaning those words which have proven to be difficult grammatical and lexical items for non-native speakers of English have been deleted. This directs the student's focus to these "problem words," and it is up to the student to decide which words should fill the gaps and thus write them in to complete the passage. In addition to these readings in cloze passage style, every unit offers a lively illustration, dictionary and pre-reading exercises to familiarize students with difficult vocabulary, and a wealth of follow-up exercises like composition and discussion questions, certain to develop and recycle students' reading, writing, grammar, and speaking skills! The free downloadable (see link below) teacher's guide contains all answers, plus special teaching notes and activities. Download a complimentary copy of the Teacher's Guide/Answer Key!
