English Online: Fashion and Fads, Intermediate 2

English Online is a comprehensive program for Israeli students learning English as a foreign language. The program makes full use of current technology by providing students and teachers with an Internet site that contains activities based on authentic online sources.

English Online consists of a series of theme-based, self-contained modules. The complete program is designed to meet the requirements of the English curriculum from Intermediate Level Stage 1 through Proficiency Level Stage 3.

The English Online Intermediate 2 package comprises:
• four stimulating booklets-Fashion and Fads, Natural Disasters, Sports Scene and Secrets of the Sea
• online instructional material that is closely integrated with the booklets
• a set of student work pages and assessment pages
• a teacher's pack that includes a teacher's guide and an audio-cassette

Fashion and Fads provides an original context for learning English by examining a variety of inter-related topics, such as the role of clothes in creating images and impressions, clothes in different times and places, the price of beauty and what makes some fads "catch on" and succeed.
