NEW CAMBRIDGE GRAMMAR AND WRITING SKILLS LEARNER'S BOOK 8 (ISBN:9781108719308)

Introduce your learners to creative writing and writing for a purpose. They’ll rewrite a well-known myth and draft an application letter, helping build their extended writing skills as they progress through the units. Each unit focuses on a different text type such as dialogue, reports or instructions. Model texts in each chapter show learners good examples of each writing type and specific activities help them practise grammar typical of the genre. Learners work individually and collaboratively, developing skills such as creative thinking, planning, drafting, peer evaluation and editing.
