What makes a hero? How can we improve our environment? Who inspires you? Each unit starts with a question to spark curiosity and ensure every student gets involved. Throughout the unit learners gain the knowledge, language and skills to answer the question in the end-of-the-unit collaborative Project. Completing the project gives students an opportunity to use the new language and skills straightaway.
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL?
COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS
Get Involved! provides authentic contexts and empowers students to talk about real-life issues with confidence through the Collaborative Projects.
FOR STUDENTS OF ALL ABILITIES
Practical solutions for mixed-ability classes include Brain Teaser logical activities and Workbook exercises at three different levels of challenge so everyone can succeed and show their talents.
THREE TYPES OF VIDEOS
Three genres of video in every unit expose students to English as it is really spoken and help them develop their language and visual literacy skills.
GAMIFIED LANGUAGE PRACTICE
Gamified activities on the Student’s App encourage students to practise English outside the classroom while teachers can monitor their work through the Progress Tracker in the Teacher’s App.
DIGITAL TOOLS
With the fully flexible component mix, including a range of digital tools for teachers and students, the course is ready for teaching face-to-face, online or any combination of the two.
