Northstar, now in its third edition, motivates students to succeed
in their academic as well as personal language goals. For each of
the five levels, the two strands - Reading and Writing and
Listening and Speaking - provide a fully integrated approach for
students and teachers. What is Special about the Third Edition? New
Themes and Updated Content - presented in a variety of genres and
in authentic materials - challenge and engage students
intellectually. Enhanced Focus on Academic Skills, more purposeful
integration of critical thinking, and an enhanced focus on academic
skills such as inferencing, synthesizing, notetaking, and test
taking help students develop strategies for success in the
classroom and on standardized tests. A structured approach gives
students opportunities for more extended and creative oral
practice, for example, presentations, simulations, debates,
speeches, public service announcements and more. A New Design with
full color pages, more photos, illustrations, and graphic
organizers fosters student engagement and makes the content come
alive. MyNorthStarLab NorthStar is now available with
MyNorthStarLab - an easy-to-use, powerful online program for
students and teachers that saves time and improves test scores.
