A wide choice of supplementary components makes it easy to tailor Top Notch to the needs of your classes “Summit 1 and Summit 2 are the titles of the fith and sixth levels of the Top Notch course. Al Student’s Books are available in split editions with bound-in workoooks. The Top Notch instructional design Daily confirmation of progress Each easy-to-follow two-page lesson begins with a clearly stated communication goal. All lesson activities are integrated with the goal and systematically build toward a final speaking activity in which students demonstrate achievement of the goal. “Can-do' statements in each unit ensure students’ awareness of the continuum of their progress. A purposeful conversation syllabus Memorable conversation models provide essential and practical social language that students can carry “in their pockets” for use in real life. Guided conversation pair work enables students to modify, personalize, and extend each model so they can use it to communicate their awn thoughts and needs. Free discussion activities are carefully crafted so students can continually retrieve and use the language from the models. All conversation models are informed by the Longman Corpus of Spoken American English. An emphasis on cultural fluency Recognizing that English is a global language, Top Notch actively equips students to interact socially with people from a variety of cultures and deliberately prepares them to understand accented speakers from diverse lanquage backgrounds. Intensive vocabulary development Students actively work with a rich vocabulary of high-frequency words, collocations, and expressions in all units of the Student’s Book. Clear illustrations and definitions clarify meaning and provide support for independent study, review, and test preparation. Systematic recyclin promotes smooth and continued acquisition of vocabulary from the beginning to the advanced levels of the course. A dynamic approach to grammar An explicit grammar syllabus is supported by charts containing clear grammar rules, relevant examples, and explanations of meaning and use Numerous grammar exercises provide focused practice, and grammar usage is continually activated in communication exercises that illustrate the grammar being learned. A dedicated pronunciation syllabus Focused pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation practice is included in each unit, providing application of each pronunciation point to the target language of the unit and facilitating comprehensible pronunciation\\t \ Ut aa 1 ranma ketgioned ae 2: Ging Out = : | — \ , “pT anton apg Sma a Tian me her ees ‘roy enh tran or guaton into he eet ebegey Shee es. oma [onton |ipanere |fmaronyar MOINS me ig MD (Rice wath.
