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.

Designed for use by IB Diploma Language B students. Each of the 15 units in this full-colour book provides students with a model text and gives them exercises that help them to analyse the structure and language. They then work up to writing a similar type of text in a similar register of language. The approach trains students to reflect on the communicative purpose of each text and to use the language appropriate to the type of text and its audience. It teaches them to structure arguments in a clear, coherent and convincing way.
