Transitions is part of Integrated English, a flexible, four-skills program for adult students of American English from beginner to intermediate level. Comprised of Gateways, Transitions, and Explorations, Integrated English has been designed for use either as three separate two book courses or as a single six-level program.
Transitions is a two-book, topic-based course for pre-intermediate level students. It features English as a tool of discovery in which authentic content provides both a context for meaningful language work and a basis for the exploration of interesting adult topics.
Transitions features:
- Engaging, authentic content to spark student interest and curiosity
- Topic-based presentation and practice of new language that focuses on the meaning and usage of target
structures
- Integrated and systematic practice of all four language skills
- Meaningful pair, small-group, and whole-class activities that ask students to draw on their own opinions,
knowledge, and experiences
- Critical thinking strategies that encourage students to think in English
- Important conversation management strategies that help students to get the information they need and to
keep a conversation going
- A grammar guide with additional practice exercises
