Topical ~':ammar Practice is a tailor-made series of six practice books for


primary students learning English as a first language and for junior high students
learning it as a foreign language. The contents closely follow the school syllabus.
Each unit covers a specific grammar point in a clear and relevant way, allowing
the young learner to practise both the use and meaning of the grammar point.

The units follow a familiar pattern of practising at both the sentence and text
levels. This is done through MCQs or choosing the correct word in sentences,
and exercises using cloze texts so that students can focus on the language itself
and not be distracted by varying methods and instructions.

Since each unit deals with a precise grammar item teachers are encouraged to
'dip into' the books at any stage to support the language item being taught in the
classroom. This way, these practice books complement the school English
lessons.

The authors strongly believe that, while the English language is the focus, the
context should be meaningful to the learners. Thus, texts have been chosen :

~~ to be cross-curricular: the texts reinforce and support what is being learnt


in other classes.

~~ to be informative and educational: the texts cover a wide range of topics


of interest to young learners, such as famous people, important places and
events, science and technology, sports, animal life, etc.

~~ to be fun: the texts include especially written stories, traditional folk and
fairy stories , quizzes and dialogues that the students could act out.

~~ to be socially-responsible: the texts include discussions on the


environment and pollution, civic responsibility, etc.

Finally, in the knowledge that teachers are busy people, the series has been
designed to be 'teacher friendly' so it is unambiguous and easy to use.

and that he was going to return it. Unfortunately, he left the game at

Tom's house, and Tom lent it to another friend. That friend didn't

return it to Tom. My brother gave me his promise that he would get it

back. I wanted to teach my brother a

lesson. I told him that he owed me a

new game and that he must give his

pocket money to me. So he did.

Then, this morning the postman

arrived with a parcel for me. Inside

was my game and a letter. I showed the letter to my brother. Tom was

sick and couldn't leave the house, so his parents had sent the game

back. I was sorry for Tom but happy to have my game back. And, of

back!
