    Product description

    Teachers need a clear description of what constitutes grammar and how it can best be taught in the English language classroom. This book illustrates a way of describing the grammar of spoken and written English and demonstrates how lexical phrases, frames and patterns provide a link between grammar and vocabulary. These processes and techniques are contextualised within a task-based approach to teaching and learning. Numerous interactive tasks are provided to guide readers. Over 40 examples of teaching exercises are included to illustrate techniques which can be applied in the classroom immediately.

    • Comprehensive and orignal coverage of issues concerning ELT practitioners. • Written by leading figure in the field. • Accessible to those with no previous knowledge of the field.
