Hot Spot 1 Teacher's Book + CD-ROM

Kondro Magdalena.

Hot Spot is a new course that identifies with the 'betweenagers' 10-14 age group. Fun and engaging, it makes the most of the growing identity of the young teenager through motivating texts and stories and lively illustrations and photography.

Each book contains seven theme-based modules each made up of three double-page presentation lessons, a cross-cultural or cross-curricular integrated skills lesson, a 'can do' review section, and a fun 'extra special' lesson to end with. The course has a transparent grammar syllabus which progresses steadily throughout the course, encouraging a discovery approach before practising and then personalising the grammar. There is a balance of skills work through the lessons, and the four skills are practised in the integrated skills lesson which focuses on a cultural or cross-curricular aspect of the module theme.

Providing a focus on the UK and other English-speaking countries, Hot Spot offers a wealth of culturally rich content that will interest and motivate young teenagers learning English.

Full colour and spiral bound for ease-of-use, the Teacher's Book for Hot Spot also has interleaved notes next to each Student's Book page, with comprehensive Teacher's Notes to provide teachers with step-by-step lesson notes and important additional information and ideas.
