CATALOG > Secondary Courses American WOW! Level :   Beginner to Intermediate Author :   Rob Nolasco Components :   Level 1-3   American WOW! promotes language learning within a contemporary communicative context. ■ WOW! (or Window on the World!) is based on a fictional TV show for young people featuring     quizzes, travel reports, documentaries, interviews, and cartoons from across a range. ■ It has a clear structural syllabus which provides students with a thorough foundation in grammar.    Structures are systematically identified, explained, and practiced through the imaginative contexts    provided by the TV show format. ■ Controlled development of all four language skills is provided from the start. ■ The emphasis throughout is on using the language to communicate. Everyday, functional English     is taught through regular, humorous cartoon sketches. ■ Every second unit is followed by a review and extension section which recycles and develops     the grammar, vocabulary, and skills that have been covered in the units.
