English as an Additional Language (EAL) for Ages 11-16 - Workbook 3 (Developing Competence)
M**D
The third in a series of excellent support books to help EAL students at secondary age.
First, you need to understand that these books are a useful support and addition to tuition or a proper course of study, NOT a replacement. Make no mistake.However, once you understand that, it is a very well designed and useful set of books.This one builds on the previous two, so do NOT start with this one. Find the other two first.This time around, students move on to more complex ideas:comparatives and superlatives, irregular past tense verb families, past participles, irregular verbs.It gives additional subject language for Design and Technology, Maths, Geography, History and the Sciences.It is a phonics based programme, so the SOUND of words is clearly essential. The clever thing is that this book includes free online audio, which is absolutely essential.Worth every penny ! If used properly.N.B. the book itself states ,students will need help reading the instructions. Don't just give this book to the child. They will really struggle. But working with them,it will be really useful.

Excellent for learning English as an additional language
This book is an excellent resource for students learning English as an additional language. It is aimed at students who have gained confidence with English vocabulary, grammar and punctuation.The book is set out in a very accessible and engaging style, with colourful illustrations and interesting topics and tasks to complete. The range of topics covered is very comprehensive, including nouns, verbs, adjectives, and a variety of different subject matters.I would not hesitate to recommend this book to teachers of EAL/TESOL/TEFL and to parents who wish to buy it to encourage and assist their children in learning English as an additional language.
