A significant resource for teachers faced with the challenge of developing students' reading and writing skills from UK GCSE through AS to A2. It is also suitable for use with the AP program. Material is presented in a clear, logical sequence, leading students from simple descriptions through to complex arguments. Students are trained in techniques that help them write confidently and coherently and are encouraged to work together on carefully structured tasks that integrate language skills and content. This collaborative approach helps students to come up with ideas and to develop key skills in self- and peer-evaluation, while ensuring that they play an active role in the redrafting process vital to producing high-quality written work. In each unit students analyse a model text in terms of its structure, form, content and language.
