ESL Conversation Rocket helps students build a solid foundation for conversational English using grammar skills.
The units culminate in Real Life Conversation, where the training wheels are taken off and students have achance to practice real, everyday conversation..
Each unit is equipped with six student-centeredexercises which gradually build in difficulty.
From there, students utilize an understanding of this grammar skill to build competence in conversation.
Each unit of ESL Conversation Rocket is Scaffolded using a simple and easily accessible grammar skill as a starting point.
Herein lies the key to effective English Conversation instruction: scaffolding! Just as children need training wheels to ride a bike, students need scaffolding to master conversation.
Now, imagine teaching a child toride a bike without training wheels; the experience would be frustrating and painful.
Students are expected to just talk.
The problem with many other ESL Conversation books is that there is no scaffolding.
Throughout the book, students use their understanding of simple grammar points, as well as their personal life experiences, to have real, authentic conversations in English.
This book was written by a teacher specifically for beginners and low-level learners.
