Explicit notes provide you another opportunity to teach phonemic awareness and phonics in the Word Study Workshops in Units 1, 2, and 3.

In Units 4, 5, 6, and 7, Media Workshops provide guided ways for you to relate what students see and hear on television, in the movies, in advertising, etc. to what is happening in class.

The Projects section is a rewarding part of every Unit, for you and for your students.

Students enjoy choosing a project to suit their own needs, styles and interests and to showcase their creativity.
