This book and audio compact disc program instructs students of English as a second language in the elements of grammar, presenting a grammar review that emphasizes speech and correct pronunciation. The compact discs include spoken dictations for each of the book's ten chapters. Students start by writing out what they hear, and then comparing what they have written with the book's printed version. In the process, they begin learning the elements of grammar, staring with the simple present tense of the verb "to be" and progressing to all other tenses and parts of speech. Students gradually learn how to use English words and pronounce them properly in grammatically correct sentences. [+/-]

Following each chapter's introductory sentence, they are given a brief story. A short test at the end of each chapter helps them determine their learning progress. The dictations start out quite simple and become progressively more difficult from one chapter to the next. The book is filled with charts and illustrations to facilitate students' learning progress.

Understanding Morphology, 2nd Edition

Title: Understanding Morphology
Author(s): Martin Haspelmath and Andrea D. Sims
Publisher: Hodder Education
ISBN: 9780340950012
Date: 2010
Pages: 383
Size: 2.5 Mb
Format: PDF
Quality: High
Language: American English

This new edition of Understanding Morphology has been fully revised in line with the latest research. It now includes 'big picture' questions to highlight central themes in morphology, as well as research exercises for each chapter. Understanding Morphology presents an introduction to the study of word structure that starts at the very beginning. Assuming no knowledge of the field of morphology on the part of the reader, the book presents a broad range of morphological phenomena from a wide variety of languages. [+/-]

Starting with the core areas of inflection and derivation, the book presents the interfaces between morphology and syntax and between morphology and phonology. The synchronic study of word structure is covered, as are the phenomena of diachronic change, such as analogy and grammaticalization. Theories are presented clearly in accessible language with the main purpose of shedding light on the data, rather than as a goal in themselves. The authors consistently draw on the best research available, thus utilizing and discussing both functionalist and generative theoretical approaches. Each chapter includes a summary, suggestions for further reading, and exercises. As such this is the ideal book for both beginning students of linguistics, or anyone in a related discipline looking for a first introduction to morphology.

Basic Knowledge about Anger .Anger has a poisonous root and sweet release. This Pali saying means that, in the beginning, anger will poison the mind, causing irritation, impatience and rage, prompting the angry persons to vent their feelings by scolding, attacking, or damaging the object of their anger. After the outburst, they will feel satisfied, which explains why anger is said to have a “sweet release.”

Things if you do you will never learn English

How do we understand Christmas? What does it mean? This book is a lively introduction to the study of popular culture through one central case study. It explores the cultural, social and historical contexts of Christmas in the UK, USA and Australia, covering such topics as fiction, film, television, art, newspapers and magazines, war, popular music and carols. Chapters explore the ways in which the production of meaning is mediated by the social and cultural activities surrounding Christmas (watching Christmas films, television, listening or engaging with popular music and carols), its relationship to a set of basic values (the idealised construct of the family), social relationships (community), and the ways in which ideological discourses are used and mobilised, not least in times of conflict, terrorism and war. [+/-]

Packed with examples ranging from Charles Dickens' seminal text, A Christmas Carol, Coca-colonisation and Santa Claus, Victorian cartoons and Christmas cards, to Dr Who, The Office, 'A Fairy Tale of New York', 'Happy Christmas (War is Over)', and such dystopian films as Jingle All the Way and All I Want For Christmas, the case studies offer an incisive account of the ways in which Christmas relates to social change, and how such recent events as 9/11 and the continuing conflict in Iraq focus attention on traditional themes of community and family. Christmas, Ideology and Popular Culture offers students and scholars alike an opportunity to explore the hidden agendas of the world's most popular festival and what it means to the outsider looking in.

Reading Zone, Grades 5-7

Title: Reading Zone: Language Activities for Intermediate/Challenging Level Students
Level: Grades 5-7, Intermediate
Author(s): Edward Connor
Publisher: Ready-Ed Publications
ISBN: 1863975993
Date: 2004
Pages: 64
Size: 2.52 Mb
Format: PDF
Quality: High
Language: British English

Reading Zone is a set of fifty reading and comprehension sheets. They have been created to suit the teaching needs of upper primary school and lower secondary school students. The sheets have been composed in ten thematic groups to establish a sense of continuity and to add more interest. The themes are: Champions, Children, Fairy tales, Nursery Rhymes, Magic, Mythology, Fishing, Space, Nations and Rodents. Each theme is identified by an icon at the top left of each page. [+/-]

This set of educational materials may be used in a number of ways:

1. As the base for a term's reading experience: The students could be placed in four or five activity groups and each day groups are given different sheets within the same thematic grouping. In this way the last day of a five-day sequence may be used for a general correction and discussion period ending with the "Spot the Difference" activity sheet being done by all. It is recommended that before the students are placed in groups and set to work on the exercises, that one of the sets is worked through as a whole class activity and discussed to ensure that students know exactly what is required.

2. Teachers may choose to work on just one activity type with the whole class and progress through all the sheets in the selected type before selecting a different type. This offers the benefit of being able to concentrate more intensely on the various language developmental aspects that the sheets focus towards.

3. As individual activities: These sheets may be spread throughout the year and used as a supplement to an established reading program, as homework sheets, or simply as stand-alone activity worksheets whenever there is a need.
