The completely new exercise book Durchstarten Englisch. Reading and Writing Practice deals with two important topics/competencies of English teaching. The Reading Comprehensions train different types of reading comprehension in the form of texts of different lengths and text types. In addition, students acquire competence in using various test formats (true/false decisions, multiple choice, ordering, connecting). The writings gently introduce students to writing English texts with writing impulses of different levels of difficulty and, thanks to many drawings, in a motivating way. Solution texts for all writing assignments offer guidance for evaluating one's own texts. The vocabulary used in Durchstarten is based on that of the 1st grade. Thus, all tasks are easy to understand and can be solved independently of the textbook. From the contents: - 47 text comprehension exercises - 36 writing exercises.
