Get all the dimensions of grammar in one exhilarating course! This four-level program systematically addresses the three dimensions of grammar–form, meaning, and use–ensuring that students not only learn to form grammatical structures, but also are able to use them meaningfully and appropriately. Each of the 25 two-color, self-contained units presents communicative tasks, listening activities, clear direction lines, streamlined grammar explanations in chart form, and a consistent recycling of grammatical structures. The CD-ROM includes over 500 interactive activities for additional practice (Windows/Macintosh format).
