This write-in workbook includes exam-type questions for skills practice as well as language exercises on spelling, punctuation, vocabulary or grammar.
The Workbook has been completely updated in line with the new syllabus, bringing reading texts and content up-to-date and relevant.
It is totally independent of the Coursebook (although of course the skills it covers are the same) so can be used as a standalone resource or with other components.
The structure is user-friendly with numbered tasks with space for students to complete the tasks in the book, grouped according to skill such as directed writing, reading comprehension and summary.
