• Updated high-interest readings in multiple genres that expose students to the form, meaning, and use of grammar in natural contexts.
• Key vocabulary is taught, practiced, and recycled throughout each unit, to ensure acquisition.
• Fully redesigned grammar charts and notes that provide greater clarity.
• Explicit pronunciation activities to improve fluency and accuracy.
• Expanded listening tasks allow students to develop a range of listening skills.
