The Girl in the Denim Jacket and other short stories: Intermediate English [Print Replica] Kindle Edition

by Andrew Rossiter (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions

This is a collection of short stories in Intermediate English for EFL and other English learning contexts. Each story is accompanied by a vocabulary guide, a student worksheet and notes for teachers.
Though specially written with language learners in mind, and aimed at teenage readers, these short stories use perfectly normal English, and avoid any kind of artificial simplified language. For this reason, they may also be appreciated by native English readers in years or grades 8 to 10.
The stories in this book are graded by difficulty, varying from CEFR Level B1 (threshold) to CEFR level C1 (proficiency). Each story, or in the case of two-part stories, each part of a story, is accompanied by a worksheet and by teaching notes with suggestions for getting the most out of each story in class or for home assignments.
The stories are full of everyday expressions, idioms, and daily vocabulary, and most of them include plenty of dialogue. Where “difficult” vocabulary is needed or used, it is used as required, and the words and expressions are explained in the short accompanying vocabulary guides, or else developed in the worksheet or teaching ideas sections.
