Publisher's Synopsis
"Tip Top" is a six-level course for young, beginner-to-intermediate learners.;Levels 1 and 2 centre on two "real life" characters and the "fantasy characters" Count Horror and his cat, Boris. Levels 3 and 4 contextualize activities within the production of a World Wildlife Activity Book and a class magazine. Practice in the four skills is thus integrated, and there are opportunities for project work. Level 5 introduces learners to traditions and stories from the English-speaking world with extensive reading and listening practice. Level 6 extends the cross-cultural approach with texts from Shakespeare and modern writers, together with related project work to stimulate the learner's imagination and curiosity about the world.;Listening tasks are the key feature of the series, and the cassette contains a variety of listening material. The workbooks give opportunities for extension work in and out of the class. The teacher's books incorporate a general methodological introduction, detailed lesson plans, tapescripts, a grammar review section and word lists.
