SynopsisThe syllabus combines a solid foundation in essential vocabulary and basic grammar with the life skills students need to function competently outside the classroom. The course progresses more slowly than most beginning series and is accessible to students with limited literacy skills. Each unit of the Student Book includes: Conversations (natural-sounding dialogues which introduce language points); Listening Plus; Paperwork (document literacy); Reading and Writing; Interactions(information gap activities); and Progress Checks. The series is designed for multilevel classes. Lively illustrations present and clarify new vocabulary and concepts., The "Student Books follow a carefully integrated syllabus based on competencies and grammatical objectives. Each book has 10 units organized around practical content, such as transportation, housing, and health. Each unit follows a consistent, 12-page format with true-to-life characters. Illustrations introduce new vocabulary and concepts. Speaking activities provide both structured and personalized practice in contexts relevant to students' lives Pair and small-group work encourage participation. Task-based information gap activities bring together the grammar and competencies in each unit. Listening skills are developed through a variety of activities, and a complete tapescript is in the back of the "Student Book. Document literacy features real life documents such as forms, labels, and product instructions. Reading is taught through high-interest readings that begin with pre-reading activities and end with comprehension checks. Writing skills are developed through a process that begins with pre-writing and ends with students sharing what they have written., Crossroads follows a carefully integrated syllabus based on competencies and grammatical objectives.
