Details
These 168 activities are designed for instructors teaching beginner to intermediate teenage and adult learners using the Oxford Picture Dictionary.

Content of the Dictionary is organized within 12 thematic units, from Everyday Language, to People, to Housing, to Food, to Recreation.

Each unit starts with an 'Intro' page (new to this edition) and ends with a story page, with single or double-page sub-topics introducing new words in a realistic visual context and easy-to-learn 'chunks'.

The target new vocabulary is listed, and simple practice activities help students to put their new words into practice.

Story pages include pre-reading questions to build previewing and predicting skills, and post-reading questions and role-play activities to support critical thinking and to encourage students to use the new language they have learned.

Rich visual contexts recycle words from the unit.

12 topic-based units corresponding to the thematic units of the main book Teacher's Notes include guidance on conducting the activities, and on planning for the multilevel classroom 960 reproducible picture cards, which can be used as flash or study cards.

Now with more grammar and writing focus.
