Oceans - With Audio Level 2 Factfiles Oxford Bookworms Library


Book Description

A level 2 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. This version includes an audio book: listen to the story as you read. Written for Learners of English by Barnaby Newbolt. Thousands of years ago, people looked out across an ocean and asked themselves, 'What is on the other side?' And the bravest of them began to travel and find the answers - beautiful islands, frozen lands, different peoples . . . And there are still interesting questions about the oceans. How do they change our weather? Why does the water go up and down twice a day? Why do most animals and plants live near the land? And what can possibly live at the bottom of the ocean, thousands of metres down, where there is no light? Surely nothing can stay alive in a place like that . . .

Marco Polo and the Silk Road


Book Description

"For a child in the great city of Venice in the thirteenth century, there could be nothing better than the stories of sailors. There were stories of strange animals, wonderful cities, sweet spices, and terrible wild deserts where a traveller could die. One young boy listened and waited, and dreamed. Perhaps one day his father and uncle would return. Perhaps he could travel with them to great markets in faraway places. For young Marco Polo, later the greatest traveller of his time, a dangerous, exciting world was waiting..." --Back cover.




Got It!, Level 2


Book Description

Got it! is a course which is comprehensive and innovative in its range of resources, but also offers support and flexibility for the teacher. How does it achieve this? By presenting grammar through dialogues or texts and following up with more detailed analysis, students are able to check their understanding of meaning and context. They are encouraged to try out new structures and are given opportunities to explore the meaning and usage of new language before it is presented and practised more formally. This allows them to discover the language intuitively for themselves and this sense of achievement helps to motivate them. With a strong emphasis on dialogue work and personalization, students are able to understand how the language can work for them. Targeted skills lessons develop this and build their competence further. The outstanding range of components means that every lesson can be varied and exciting. Whether you prefer using print or digital, or a combination of the two, all the resources are at your fingertips - giving you maximum support and flexibility. Maintaining motivation is always a challenge with teenagers, so the topics for each unit have been carefully chosen to help them become culturally aware. In addition, the broad range of issues covered develops their understanding of values.
