GRADED READERS
Enjoyable reading material providing a rich
context for language practice. Exciting classic
stories retold in a unique way and original
stories which feature the cultures of
English-speaking countries!
Graded Readers provide learners from Beginner to Upper-Intermediate level with
enjoyable reading material, while helping them to develop a variety of language
skills. Delightful characters and exciting adventures provide the inspiration for our
classic and contemporary stories.
The stories have been carefully graded for each level according to vocabulary,
grammatical structures, sentence length and plot complexity so as to ensure that
the students’ understanding of the story is not impeded. Each story consists of 10
- 13 chapters. Wonderful full-colour illustrations, closely integrated with the text,
stimulate learners and facilitate understanding. Each Student’s Book in the series
is accompanied by an Activity Book, a Teacher’s Book and the audio material.
The Activity Book includes a variety of exercises on each chapter, checking the
comprehension of the chapter, practising new vocabulary and requiring the
production of sentences or short paragraphs. There are also questions requiring
learners to guess what will happen in the following chapter. At the back of the
book, there is a number of exercises on the whole story, which help learners revise
the plot, characters and key events of the story. Finally, a glossary aids students
with unknown vocabulary.
The Teacher’s Book consists of the Student’s Book, the Activity Book with
overprinted answers and a section with Teacher’s Notes. In this section,
background information is provided, as well as detailed lesson plans. A step-
by-step approach is given, containing a list of pre- and post-reading activities,
general, specific and prediction questions, ideas for projects, posters and games,
etc., to encourage class participation and discussions. Revision Tests and a
detailed marking scheme are also included.
