English-Speaking World
Did you know that…
Think Global is a fascinating and dynamic new course about Anglophone culture for young learners of English. It brings to life the vibrancy and mix of the modern day reality of a global English community. The book contains 15 units with each one concentrating on a topic of interest to today’s youngsters. Each unit is divided into two levels with the first four pages at A1/A2 level while the following four pages are at A2 level. This allows teachers to focus on a topic with two different levels of difficulty and deal with students who are at a different level of language ability. In each unit there is: - a Country Profile dedicated to an English-speaking country - study pages to improve exam technique - a skills section which consists of a short video clip followed by comprehension activities or a reading text with a similar kind of comprehension check - Key Language that helps students carry out the speaking activities - Did you know…? boxes that give students unusual facts about the English-speaking world - KEY (KET) and TRINITY practice - interactive glossary At the end of the book, you’ll find: - 12 study pages dedicated to skills needed to pass an exam in English - 3 fun board games Also available: Teacher’s book with transcripts, answers and extension activities.
