Writing Canadian English

SECOND EDITION

An all-Canadian ESL resource

Learning English can be fun when you add a dash of Canadian culture and a pinch of extracurricular activity. The intermediate workbook, together with the teacher handbook, is intended to follow the Beginning Student Workbook and combines English grammar and vocabulary with lessons on living in Canada — from day-to-day tasks to larger topics such as the law, citizenship and government.

Twenty units cover the fundamentals of English. Each unit is divided into grammar, oral practice, written exercises, reading and responses. The teacher can use the units in any desired sequence, which is a valuable feature for those teaching a modular, self-directed or individualized learning program. These practical materials are suitable for teacher and student use in junior and senior high schools, as well as adult education.
