SKILL LEVEL: High Beginning/Low-intermediate Volume 2 consists of 25 units that present basewords with definitions, usage examples, and exercises. Each unit focuses on a specific topic, carefully selected for its relevance to students' lives, so that students can practice new words in meaningful contexts. The exercises are flexible and easy to use, taking students from simple, fairly controlled practice to a final phase of communicative exercise. A list of words covered in the previous volume is included.
I own all six of the books in this series and find them to be extremely useful and effective. My students ask for these lessons. The books range from Beginner, Book 1 to Advanced, Book 6. I like the fact that at the beginning of each unit there is a word chart that gives all the forms of each base word studied. For instance,if the word, "effect" is being studied, "effective", "effectively", and "effectiveness" are also included. Each word is defined and an example given, and followed with exercises. I often assign these lessons as pair work.
