This book is meant as a revision resource for GCSE Spanish. It can be used independently by students as well as for classroom practice. It contains 12 units which focus mainly on the themes of environment, health and career. Gianfranco Conti, Ronan Jezequel & Dylan Viñales Edited by Jaume Llorens, Paloma Lozano García & Inés G¿owacka Units start with a knowledge organiser, recapping the the target sentence patterns and lexical items, a series of receptive vocabulary building activities; a set of narrow reading texts and activities; a set of translation tasks. The tasks are graded in order to pose an increasingly demanding but manageable cognitive load and challenge and are based on Dr Conti's P.I.P.O. framework:¿ Pre-reading tasks (activation of prior knowledge & pre-teaching) ¿ In-reading tasks (intensive exploitation of tasks) ¿ Post-reading tasks (consolidation) ¿ Output (pushed-output tasks) Consistent with Dr Conti's E.P.I. approach, each of the 12 units in the book provide extensive recycling of the target lexical items both within each unit and throughout the book, across all the dimensions of receptive and productive processing, i.e.: orthography (single letters and syllables), lexis (both words and chunks), grammar/syntax (with much emphasis on functional and positional processing), meaning and discourse. The recycling occurs through input-flooding and forced retrieval through a wide range of engaging, tried and tested, classic Conti tasks (more than 20 per unit). These include student favourites such as slalom writing, faulty translation, spot the missing detail, sentence puzzles, etc. Please note that both The Language Gym and SentenceBuilders.com websites are ideal supplements to this book. Both websites recycle every single lexical and structural item found in this book many times over via selfmarking vocabulary and reading workouts, in addition to engaging and fun games and a powerful verb trainer.

This short stories collection is a hilarious look at life as a middle aged Kenyan trying very hard to balance life. You will laugh out loud because you can relate to the That Ka Age stories that cut across ages 20- 60, because in the end, we are all just trying to make sense of this life. Some stories like December Holidays, Joy Bringers and The Cattle Dip Tour poke fun at family relations, how we sometimes put up a show for each other but not fooling anyone. These stories started as weekly WhatsApp status updates that have now gained more than 100 weekly readers. "Your stories are very vividly relatable with a wrought sense of humour especially the native expressions..and the simplicity in storytelling..." Steve, Steve' Cabin- Nanyuki.

Italian Sentence Builders is a workbook aimed at beginner to pre-intermediate students co-authored by three modern languages educators with over 50 years of extensive classroom experience between the three, both in the UK and internationally. This 'no-frills' book contains 19 units of work on very popular themes, jam-packed with graded vocabulary-building, reading, translation, retrieval practice and writing activities. Key vocabulary, lexical patterns and structures are recycled and interleaved throughout.Each unit includes:1) A sentence builder modelling the target constructions;2) A set of vocabulary building activities;3) A set of narrow reading texts exploited through a range of tasks focusing on both the meaning and structural levels of the text;4) A set of retrieval-practice translation tasks;5) A set of writing tasks targeting essential micro-skills such as spelling, lexical retrieval, syntax, editing and communication of meaning.Based on the Extensive Processing Instruction (E.P.I.) principle that learners learn best from comprehensible and highly patterned input flooded with the target linguistic features, the authors have carefully designed each and every text and activity to enable the student to process and produce each item many times over. This occurs throughout each unit of work as well as in smaller grammar, vocabulary and question-skills micro-units located at regular intervals in the book, which aim at reinforcing the understanding and retention of the target grammar, vocabulary and question patterns.
