Cambridge Lower Secondary English Digital Learner's Book Stage 8 (1 Year)
Author/s: Graham Elsdon
Develop your English as you write a film script, deliver a persuasive speech and explore dystopian fiction.
You’ll find a wide range of international fiction, non-fiction, poetry and drama throughout the book to help you develop your understanding of different genres and text types.
Each unit is packed with activities that cover reading, writing, speaking and listening, as well as opportunities to develop 21st century skills – such as collaboration and critical thinking.
Units end with a project, like creating a time capsule, to help you communicate confidently and understand how to apply your learning to real-world scenarios.
