Listening passages allow students to integrate grammar as they locate and fill in missing words. Grammar exercises require students to demonstrate comprehension. With a partner, activities offer meaningful practice in real-world settings. Back of the Book notes to the teacher expand the teaching/learning potential of the text. Graphic organizers stimulate higher-order thinking skills, and activities help prepare students for standardized texts.
