Cambridge Checkpoint English Student's Book 3.
This is the third of a series of three books aimed at international students in stages 7—9 who are preparing for the Cambridge Checkpoint Tests, with a view to IGCSE and beyond. This is an integrated series of books (each with an accompanying teacher's resource book), offering a varied and challenging range of English experiences and assignments. The books provide a comprehensive introduction to the skills needed to succeed in English at this stage and can be used as a main teaching resource or to complement teachers' own schemes of work and other materials.
Covering curriculum requirements
The content of Student's Book 3 is firmly rooted in the Cambridge Secondary 1 English Curriculum Framework for stage 9 and focuses on the key areas of reading and writing along with underlying emphasis on language study, grammatical usage and punctuation. These skills are consolidated and revisited through each book in the series. Each chapter also contains suggested speaking and listening activities.
In each chapter there is a thematic link between the reading and writing sections, and the stimulus material reflects the suggestions for reading in the Cambridge framework. The stimulus material is drawn from both fiction and non-fiction texts written in English from countries throughout the world and from different periods of time. Pre-twentieth century literature is amply represented and, wherever possible, in an unabridged format. Reading exercises test straightforward fact retrieval, understanding of vocabulary and inferential and interpretative reading skills. Writing tasks allow students to write in a variety of genres (related to the different stimulus material) and provide opportunities to write both short passages and more extended, complex responses, in some cases as part of a small group project.
