Based on feedback from teachers and students around the world, NEW Opportunities now comes with new features and components to make your lessons even more motivating and successful.
In eighth grade and beyond, students are asked to read, understand, and interpret a variety of texts, including stories and poems, reports, essays, and scientific and technical information. Each of the twenty short lessons in 8th Grade Reading Comprehension Success is designed to help students build their critical reading and thinking skills. These lessons start with the basics and move into more complex reading strategies, with each lesson including several exercises and explanations to practice the skills learned. This book also includes a pre-test and post-test to help see how much the reading comprehension skills have improved, specifying areas where additional practice may be needed.
This new edition has been revised to match the format of the latest TOEIC and includes fifty vocabulary-building lessons that focus on American English as it is used within the context of modern business, industry, communications, and cultural activities. Examples of practical English usage touch on such subjects as contracts, marketing, banking, and personnel, among many others. Additional lessons concentrate on helping TOEIC test takers expand their English vocabulary in areas related to cultural activities, such as movies, museums, music, and art. Each lesson presents 12 target words with definitions, used in several different contexts. Exercises follow every lesson, and a quiz follows every five lessons to test students’ newly acquired skill in understanding and using their new words. The included audio CD provides essential help in pronunciation and listening comprehension, using the various accents tested on the new TOEIC.
This is a collection of videolessons from EF english. Each lesson has its own topic and teaches some new vocabulary and gives the opportunity to practice listening. The lessons are divided according to the level. There are 16 lessons in each level.
